- I have downloaded that 8.04 version. there was an option of installing linux inside windows. Though it would reduce system performance, i did that. I have run that version using virtual clone driver. Then install it and boot the comp. Nothing happened just in d: there is a folder of ubuntu. Now i m planning to install it manually and uninstall this one. well can u tell me y this happend

Ubuntu 7.04 is outdated. You should use Ubuntu 8.04.1. Get the live cd here. If you want, you can try Wubi. It will make installing alot easier, but there are a few limiations.
If the Hardy live cd does not work, you can try the "alternate desktop cd" with a text-based installer. It is a little more challenging. Just be sure you don't use a guided install because most will end up formatting the windows partition.
