Well I also have my own workaround, but seems complicated. I finally installed Ubuntu 14.04 successfully using this, but the problem is my PC won't shutdown if this is applied in the kernel boot parameters. I've added "acpi=off" on the GRUB configurations, which is located in /etc/default/grub

Also, when I click Shutdown in the right upper gears button, it will reboot instead! Not shutdown! Lol what the he**!

I can confirm, this is a problem in the kernel. Something with the "ACPI" drivers, or may be not.. Again, I'm not trying to BE an expert here. I also tried using the latest trusty 3.14.0 kernel from Ubuntu Kernel PPA's:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.14-trusty/

No luck! :(
