Sounds like a windows error message:

In any event, you should not be trying to run the .iso from within
Windows, you should set your bios to boot from CD and then boot directly
to the CD. You _can_ install within Windows using WUBI[1], but if your
Windows system is as buggy as it sounds, you'd be better served cleaning
up your Windows install first.

The above will take a bit of reading first, but you'll find that making
any change to a system, even moving from Windows ME to Windows XP takes
some reading & preparation. Have a look through the links, work on
cleaning up your windows system, and then decide if you want to:

1. Dual-boot (leave your Windows intact and boot into either Ubuntu or
Windows),
2. Wipe your Windows install completely and dive directly into Ubuntu,
3. Use WUBI and install Ubuntu as an existing application on your
Windows system,
4. Just load the desktop CD and play with Ubuntu for awhile without any
installation at all.

#4 is probably your best bet for now as it will also help determine if
your hardware is capable of running Ubuntu. #3 would be my next choice
if you've no previous experience with Ubuntu/linux (after you've cleaned
up your Windows install); that way you can uninstall as an app if you
wish. #1 would be my next choice once you've decided to migrate to
Ubuntu. #2 will come later :-)
