I'm running into this problem for a while and tried different solutions. I want to install Ubuntu 12.04 64bit LTS in dual boot alongside with Windows 8.1 Pro N. When I boot the USB or disc and select Install Ubuntu I get a black screen and nothing else happens.
With all four options I get the problem:
Try Ubuntu without installing
Install Ubuntu
Check disk for defects
Run usb stick from Windows
Solutions I tried:
Use a bootable DVD
Use a bootable USB(via different tools and different usb drives)
nomodeset solution
I got the Toshiba L50-A-16HNL (fresh installation of Windows, all drivers up-to-date)
Intel Core i7 4700MQ
Nvidia GeForce GT740M
Standard 5400 rpm disk
8GB ram
Oh, and Secure Boot is disabled.
Hopefully I'm not the only and is someone able to help me, thanks in advance.
