Ubuntu 12.04 installed but won't boot, no other OS

Question

OS Ubuntu 12.04 installed from USB Computer Toshiba Satellite Old OS: Vista

Hello,

I installed ubuntu 12.04 from a usb. during the installation I installed Ubuntu over windows so all windows was deleted. After installation was complete it asked for a re-boot and I re-booted. It went to a screen with a flashing cursor in the top right corner. I then re-booted the comp. from usb and it takes me to a page that has at the top GNU GRUB version 1.99-2ubuntu3.1

further below I have options to choose.

ubuntu with linux 3.2.0-29-generic-pae
ubuntu with linux 3.2.0-29-generic-pae (recovery mode)
memtest86+
memtest86+ serial console 115200

after i choose the first two optionsit goes back to the following screen

mountall: error while loading shared libraries;/lib/libply.so.2: invalid ELF

I am not sure what to do here. Any help would be appreciated.
