Okay. So I've already installed Ubuntu on my C: drive that has Windows 7 too.
I previously have the Ubuntu burnt on a DVD.
But I need to un-install wubi and re-install Ubuntu.

Please clarify my doubts regarding dual booting:
1. Should I need create a new drive for Ubuntu? (Like F: drive which is a total rip off of the free space from another drive)?
2. I've used wubi installer to install Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, but is it safe to install both the operating systems on the same C: drive?
3. I've been told by a guy from this forum that wubi is no longer developed or maintained, so I do need to re-install Ubuntu in another way right?
So what do I need to perform to install Ubuntu on dual-boot with Windows 7 in the safest way because I need to be using this for many years without any major issues along the way?

PLEASE guide me through the process!
I'm loving to work with Ubuntu and I'm a newbie when it comes to installing new OS's and disk partitioning.):P
I'm gonna un-install wubi, and obviusly Ubuntu will be removed and then walk me through the steps to install Ubuntu
