Also, sometimes during boot the fan starts working very loudly and the only way to stop is turn off the computer. It happens only when I'm using Ubuntu, and I'm about to give up using Ubuntu. I had been using it happily with my old computer but with this one it seems as if they tried a lot for disabling users to use another OS! Computer works very silently (nearly unheardable) when I'm in Windows 8 but when I open Ubuntu, it works with some hearable noise. Now I see that while booting Ubuntu, I receive an error before Ubuntu logo appears:

[ 17.827875] nouveau E [ DRM] Pointer to TMDS table invalid

I have Nvidia graphics card, so this "nouevau" is related to that as far as I know but, in case it helps...
