Hi, ecoooouybe, welcome to the forums.

Here's how to create a bootable USB stick on Windows (http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows) and how to create a bootable USB stick on Ubuntu (http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu).

You probably should be able to see your hard drive in Nautilus. If so, click it and it should mount. Then check your left top where it says ´devices´ for your device and you can browse your files and copy/delete/move them.

If by any chances you're not able to do that, another option is to mount the partition where windows is. Run this on a terminal window:
sudo fdisk -l
The output should be something like

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 2048 206847 102400 8 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda2 206848 209717247 104755200 8 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
To locate which partition has your files, perform the following command:
sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdaX /~/choose-a-folder-name-you-wantwhere X is the number of the partition you want to mount, like /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2. It should mount the disk with full access, so you can copy and paste files to those folders.
Remember, it will mount your windows 7 partition to a folder, so be carefull not to delete anything important.

sudois a Unix/Linux command. It looks like you are running this in Windows.

The thing is, where are you running the command?

You have to run it in your Ubuntu partition and it seems you're doing it in your windows partition.
