I recommend you spend some time here first:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wubi
https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/index.html
https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/installation-guide/index.html
Have a look through those to get an idea of Ubuntu & installation
requirements.
Once you'd done that, post back with further questions.

Note: I am not merely sending you off to "Read The Manual" to not answer
your question directly, but instead recommend that you review the
documentation & instructions _before_ attempting to install. That will
give you a good overview + detailed instructions. Pay particular
attention to:
