WUBI

[bwright]

Well the other option would be to do a full install of Ubuntu and then
install Windows in a virtual machine using something such as virtual
box which I believe is included in the main ubuntu jaunt repositories.
A quick question did you download the iso using the WUBI client? If so
please go to http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download place the .iso
file in the same directory as the wubi executable. If you have a slow
internet connection may I suggest you bit torrent the iso file? It can
handle slower connections than http. I am not 100% sure if you can use
the cd but you should be able to. Sorry I couldn't provide more
information.
