Yesterday I installed Ubuntu 13.04 32-bit on my PC, but it runs slow. I don't know why. I'm a new Linux user in general.

Hardware
• Processor: Intel Atom CPU N26000 1.60GHz x 4
• Graphics card: Intel Express Chipset says in Windows. Intel Coportation Atom Processor D2xxx/N2xxx integrated graphics controller with Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.2, 128 bits)
• Hard disk: 313.9GB
• 1 GB RAM.

I do not know if I should install another distribution of Linux or another version of Ubuntu, but I need help please. Thanks. :(

In general, your system meets minimum requirements. Although its never going to fly, it should be able to run Ubuntu. But it seems that 3D accelaration is not supported for the Atom N26000. Because Ubuntu's Unity desktop needs 3d, that could well be your problem.

If you dont really mind which desktop environment you use, why not give the LXDE desktop a try. Either by going into the Ubuntu software center and just install it, or uninstall Ubuntu and install Lubuntu. It will certainly boost your systems performance.

Good luck!
