         You have many options. My choice would be to use the LiveCD of 
Ubuntu version 10.04 and get it on a cd-rom and boot that and use the 
tool on that to make the Windows partition smaller, say 50 GB, and you 
will have 100 GB for the new Ubuntu. But only use about 15 GB for Ubuntu 
and save the rest for other things.
