If you were running XP and it ws slow you may not have enough RAM for a standard Ubuntu (not your problem here though) you may want to consider Lubuntu to start with.

This problem seems to be showing up a lot lately. Check your BIOS and in boot order does hard drive have a + next to it? Some BIOSs recognize a bootable flash as a hard drive. If it's there you'll need to change the hard drive order.
