It's a simple fix.  If you have Windows installed first before installing
any version of Linux, Windows will boot by default.  To fix this, you need
to edit the GRUB boot file that tells your system to use the GRUB boot
loader and also to load your version of Linux.  You will likely have to use
a Live CD/DVD to boot into your Ubuntu distro and then edit GRUB to make
Ubuntu boot first.

Here's a link I found that may help you:

I'm sure others on the list will be able to help you with getting GRUB to
start at boot and also to make sure it boots into Ubuntu.
