How do I install Ubuntu?

I have a Dell Inspiron 530, it worked well with Windows XP, I only stopped using it because support for XP ended, so I installed Window 7, everything worked well, no problems. This is a spare computer, so I wanted to install Ubuntu as an experiment with the intention of using Ubuntu after support for Windows 7 stops in about 12 months, or before if Ubuntu is as good as people have told me. I didn't mind completely deleting Windows because I have an installation disc. This is where the problems started, it took four try's to create the Ubuntu installation DVD, it kept telling me there was extra information on the Ubuntu download that would be lost if I continued creating the boot disc. On the fourth try it worked, followed all the instructions installing Ubuntu, ticked all the boxes required, installed and then the installation went to restart, after restart it went about 10 seconds and the mouse and keyboard froze, and then no further action from the computer. Thinking there may have been an error or I did something wrong, I tried twice more but got the same result.
What am I doing wrong?
Update: I have seen the replies that suggest it is a duplicate question, and I have read through a number of answers to what appears the same problem, but although they seem the same I can't seem to find the solution to the problem. I run a micro business and now the Christmas/New Year break has passed it maybe some time before I am able to try again as time is limited. I shall retry on a newer computer with better specifications and report back. Thank you to everyone who took the trouble to answer my question, your input is most welcome.

Smells like a bad iso download or a bad installer burn. Start from the beginning at How do I install Ubuntu?. Follow the instructions exactly, no shortcuts. Make sure your system meets the minimum requirements for Ubuntu. Ubuntu is not designed to run on old, low-end, or broken hardware, and it's possible that your experience on an ancient 530 might be slow and frustrating. Try a lighter-weight flavor like Xubuntu or Lubuntu.

Smells like a bad iso download or a bad installer burn. Start from the beginning at How do I install Ubuntu?. Follow the instructions exactly, no shortcuts. Make sure your system meets the minimum requirements for Ubuntu. Ubuntu is not designed to run on old, low-end, or broken hardware, and it's possible that your experience on an ancient 530 might be slow and frustrating. Try a lighter-weight flavor like Xubuntu or Lubuntu.
