Hello,
The system, Dell Inspiron 3537, was only certified with pre-install Ubuntu 12.04.2
It might not work with stock Ubuntu that you downloaded from our site.

I would suggest you give 12.04.5 a try.
You can also raise this issue by filing a new bug [1], contact support [2], or go to community [3] for help.
