The problems you have listed in your updated description are not that unusual. You can find documentation at https://help.ubuntu.com/ (I usually google something like "help.ubuntu.com <problem here>". There are also the extremely popular Ubuntu Forums - http://ubuntuforums.org/ - the Absolute Beginners Talk is a great place to start. Good luck.
