Victor's symptoms are very different from mine but I haven't tried a USB install of Ubuntu for months.
I tried multiple USB sticks and they all had the same behavior. I could boot to live CD on my laptop and one desktop but could not boot on the Gigabyte Motherboard. I bought a DVD reader for that system and used the same ISO to boot an load. Once the system was booted it verified md5 sums on all the files on the stick. I believe a pertinent piece of information is that Startup Disk Creator and UNetbootin produce slightly different messages before the failure. This suggests to me that the bootloader is being read by BIOS but its disk driver is failing. I have been working with Scientific Linux (a Fedora derivative) for work but I installed that from DVD. I'll make a USB and see if they can boot a live CD.
