I am trying to download ubuntu for the first time to replace windows on an old computer. I have tried 3 different servers and 4 different versions, but can't get the hash to match up after I download. Any help for a new kid on the block would be greatly appreciated.

It could be an error in your matching process.
Are you doing it according to instructions here (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM)?

Use a torrent client. That will check the md5sum as it downloads.
