You apparently do not have a 64 bit cpu (Intel or AMD). Download or get the ubuntu 32 bit version (ie Ubuntu-8.10-desktop). The advantages of one over the other are academic unless you have a multi-core CPU or greater than 4Gb or ram memory.

check this out,

early searching indicates you may have to use a early release of ubuntu with this processor,

is it in a packard bell? what is the motherboard, pc manufacturer?

I'm not sure about the 3000+ but can confirm that the Sempron 3200+ in my compaq machine (made by HP) is capable of running 64-bit Ubuntu
