I'm afraid I can't follow:
1. What you've done.
2. What you want to do.

Try staring again. But this time, use clear language, and divide the prose into multiple short paragraphs.

It sounds like:
You downloaded and burned an Ubuntu CD
You tried to install it within Windows (using Wubi)
The new Wubi install doesn't work
You want to wipe Windows

If the above are true:
Boot from the CD (i.e. bypassing Windows)
Install Ubuntu to entire HD.
