Hello, sorry it has taken so long to get  around to the bios update suggested. I've had a lot on. Anyway, sadly nothing has changed.
Certainly worth a try, although I was a little doubtful since I can replicate this on 2 other PC's. Here is the output requested:-

sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
1.1.4
12/21/2009

Basically its the same. 
Start from scratch:- The light on the tuner goes out after the
boot starts and the system hangs. When I power down and restart the
light is out and will come on again after I see the 'ACPI PCC Probe
failed starting version 219' and the system boots. If I disconnect the
tuner from scratch before switching on the system boots OK.
If I boot with a '3.16...' kernel, no problem. Its only started at '3.19...' kernels.
Regards

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Following advice as per Release Notes
  (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VividVervet/ReleaseNotes)

  Just upgraded from 14.10 to 15.04 and now  Ubuntu fails to start from powering up. I select 'ubuntu' on the grub loader screen and then get a blank screen. Computer just hangs. Have tried Ctrl + Alt  + 1 etc, and also leaving for several minutes but nothing happens.
  Once I power down manually and restart and try again I see a message 'ACPI PCC Probe failed, starting version 219' and PC boots OK.

  This has repeated each time from scratch.

  FYI 
  lsb_release -rd
