Unable to install ubuntu 13.04 on HP p2-1334 desktop PC(preinstalled windows 8) - Blank screen/hang

Question

Problem: [I get a text mode menu from GRUB that ask me if I want to install, After selecting to Install, the screen goes black-blank and lastly PC hangs, no more actions or noises]

Steps I've done:

Bios changes: - Boot order (to make it boot from a CD or USB drive) - Secure boot option disabled

Result [Fail]

From Windows 8 Accessed Change PC settings Selected to restart from a CD or USB drive > Advance settings option Fast Start Up Disable

Result [Fail]

I suggest having a look here to explain about EUFI and how to get Ubuntu installed: Impossible installing Ubuntu 13.04 in UEFI mode with Windows 8 preinstalled — BiggJJ, Jul 05 '13 at 08:42

Try pressing F12(maybe another key for your BIOS) to enable dialogue that asks from which drive would you like to boot up ?
