This is *really* good advice. Although I think in this case the same
system has run perfectly under Windows, which immediately rules out
hardware issues.
Specifically in your case, I'd try a different and more bleeding edge
distribution - not just the latest Ubuntu. You're quite likely going to
need to boot with a modified kernel stanza via grub as well I think for
kernel mode setting.
