Cannot install Ubuntu 14.04.2 on Acer Aspire E5 - 511G with Windows 8

Hello. I have tried everything I can to install Ubuntu 14.04.2 alongside Windows 8 on my laptop and I'm not going to be successful. I have Ubuntu on a USB key, and whatever I have, I get the message "the system has no USB boot option." So far, I have:

-Disabled the quick start.

-Disabled Secure Boot UEFI firmware settings.

-Tried to set the USB FDD and USB HDD at the top of the order of priority of Boot and Windows Boot Manager to the lowest priority.

These measures appear to allow most people to access Ubuntu on their flash drive, but it does not work for me. Anyone know what I can try? Is there anyone here who has the same model and who has installed Ubuntu?

If USB is not, probably you did not create a proper EFI bootable USB.

Rufus allows you to create a bootable USB flash drive, selecting only for UEFI system.

Please re-enable secure too boot.
