Hi :)

Can i just check that this doesn't work?  You put the ubuntu cd in the cd/dvd-drive and reboot the machine.  When you get to a menu saying "Try Ubuntu without making changes to this machine" you select that and then don't get to a working desktop?  Does this guide help?

When you do manage to get into Ubuntu please can you go up to the top
taskbar and click on

Applications - Accessories - Terminal

and into the terminal/command window/console type

sudo fdisk -l

then copy the output into here so we can see if something wrong with that.  Good luck with this!
Regards from
Tom :)
