You can get the ISO file from Ubuntu website and use UNetbootin *or the one you have already downloaded) to create bootable USB using the ISO file you have downloaded. Refer this guide on how to use UNetbootin – Ron May 16 '15 at 05:25

well first, you need to go to ubuntu.com and download ubuntu, 32 or 64 bit (based on your computer age), then download the universal usb installer from pendrivelinux.com. then run the application and browse for the .iso file,for example, ubuntu14.10desktop.ISO or something like that. then install to flash drive. after finished,
1: turn off computer
2: plug usb into desiredemphasized text computer
3: power up while repeatedly pressing f12 or f2 so you can get to boot from the usb device.
4: IMPORTANT: if you want a dual boot computer, then carefully in the partition editor make a place for the OS that varies from 10- whatever amount of storage you need
then install updates when finished with installing everything.
reply if you need any other help.
