That is plenty good enough to run LL, or many other distros for that matter. Something else is causing the issue. Did you check the 'md5sum' of the ISO file to see that it matched the one shown on the download page? If yes, can you boot from the Ubuntu disk you spoke of and run the following command in a terminal:
Copy the entire output of the command and paste it back here for us to look at. Follow directions shown on this post for pasting the output between 'code blocks': https://www.freecinema2022.gq/forums/index...opic=487.0.
