Trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 x64 on a dual boot PC along side Windows 8.1 Pro x64. I can get to the GRUB boot loader screen, and the menu to install but after I choose Install the Ubuntu splash screen show up fine but when the desktop try's to load it is corrupted I only see layers of colors and an unrecognizable slanted desktop.
Installing from a USB Stick 8GB.
I can get to the screen to edit the grub boot loader menu with nomodeset command but don't know how to save the changes?
