[Bug 1393205] Re: Intel q35 bug on Ubuntu 14.04 (Screen Artifacts)

 

Hello Christopher,
It stats i need windows however i lost my windows 8.1 when i was installing Ubuntu 14.04. For some reason the Installation mixed up my hard drives up as a result mixing my WIndows 7 with my Windows 8.1. Thinking i was over writing Windows 7 (when in fact it was Windows 8.1) i cocked it up.

I still have my Windows 8.1 Hard Drive (I called it Windows 8.1 (C)
before the installation) however i cant get it to boot up along with
Ubuntu.

Bug description:
  Picture simliar of my problem: http://i.stack.imgur.com/0ARuB.jpg

  I went on a Ubuntu support chat website and was told that either this
  problem is a "glitch"  or intel q35 doesn't support Ubuntu 14.04. From
  the chat they told me i should downgrade to Ubuntu 12 which i did but
  i really want to use Ubuntu 14. They also told me to make a bug report
  of this.

  Is this a glitch or is my graphics card unsupportive.
