you don't want an older version. You won't have all the updates and improvements. What you want is a light weight version like Xubuntu http://www.xubuntu.org/.

If you have an old or low-spec computer, using a lightweight desktop system such as Xubuntu is recommended, as it should make more efficient use of your system's resources.

This page lists minimum requirements for installation

You can get xubuntu from their website
http://www.xubuntu.org/get

Here is a complete list of download mirrors. Most servers will contain current and previous versions of ubuntu.

Can you help with this problem?
