It seems to me that you are just using the iso file as it is,that does not work, you have to download a special program to create a live USB of ubuntu to be able to install it I recommend you read this post about how to create the live USB [LINK] finally here you can find a full how-to create live USB and install Ubuntu dual boot with Windows [this video] I am glad you are using Ubuntu, it is great and it really is better that windows, but it is a challange also, there would be things you don't know and really recommend you to search a little more on google or duckduckgo, and forums, to find the answers to your next problems. There are plenty of tutorials on itsfoss.com, omgubuntu.co.uk and howto
