Ok so let me explain.
My laptop is an HP Envy m4 1015dx
It was running Windows 8.1 and then I decided I wanted Ubuntu.
I put a bootable disk in (right Architecture and a Stable version 14.04 LTS) and whenever I boot up. Immediately before the install menu, I get some EFI error?
Ok so after that quick error flashes I am brought to the install menu. I tried installing Ubuntu and then my laptop fan and laptop sounded like it was playing CS: GO on ultra. (Just pretty loud not insane lol) and then my computer immediately turns off.
Same thing with Try Ubuntu Without Installing.
I tried this whole thing on Legacy Boot
The official IRC #Ubuntu said it might have something to do with "nomodeset"? And linked me to this article: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132
I really have no clue. A while back, probs last year, I ran ubuntu fine on the same computer so I am really confused.
Also I tried this with Debian (that is when I first formatted my drive and got rid of Windows) and I could get to the grub boot loader but I couldn't get passed it)
(The debian version I tried to install also had the wrong arch i386 if that helps somehow)
