Default Ubuntu not working properly, all codecs are missing

When I installed Ubuntu on my PC, all the codecs were missing plus my sound card wasnt working as well as my video cards drive wasnt working...


I think it's because i got a really bad version. Either that or something else. any help?

the codecs for media are not included with the cd but can be easily downloaded,
also what sound card do you have and what graphics card, most mainstream cards are supported
and finny what version gutsy gibbon? (7.10)

also for anyone wanting ubuntu without wanting to download all the propitiatory codecs have a look at mint (ubuntu with codecs flash and java pre installed )
