use unetbootin (http://lubi.sourceforge.net/unetbootin.html) windows version. Install ubuntu then use gparted to delete windows and resize ubuntu to use the unallocated space.


Edit: reading the unetbootin website you will not have to worry about using gparted to resize as unetbootin can replace the existing OS entirely.
