I have followed this guide to install ubuntu to the same drive as a pre-existing windows 8.1 installation. I have got up to installing ubuntu without any issues where I encounter either a blank screen or a distorted one after the dvd is read.
I have tried selecting nomodeset
, acpi=off
and nolapic
before preceding to install ubuntu with no success (distorted screen).

My machine is CSM capable and that option has been enabled in UEFI (disabling this stops windows booting)
