Sounds like you are not booting from CD. Can you test with another CD,like the Windows install or something?

Things always mess up for me.  I just never get it right.
After hearing others talk of how easy it is to install Ubuntu Idownloaded the file, burned the cd, checked that my PC boots first fromthe CD-ROM drive, and tried it. Nothing. It just launched WindowsXP-Pro, fixpack2, as usual.
What stupid thing have I not done? Or done that I shouldn't have done?Any ideas?
