Been running 13.10 for a long time .. ran the upgrade and on first boot got the attached screen. Downloaded the ISO and did a clean instalation and got the same. If I run 14.04 from DVD it runs.
a bit perplexed to say the least as 14.04 upgrated on my other machine without problem.

Can you right click? And then in changing screen, get to system settings?
I had that once, and related to video driver. What video card/chip do you have.
Once I installed the proprietary drivers from nVidia for my card it worked.
At grub menu you can use e for edit, scroll to linux line and replace quiet splash with nomodeset.
How to set NOMODESET and other kernel boot options in grub2 - both BIOS liveCD & grub first boot ( also UEFI with grub)
