is there a way to install ubuntu over an already exsisting ubuntu partition on a dual boot win-buntu system as a repair disc. my ubuntu partition has been having allot of problems lately, like fsck aint working audio drivers failing randomly graphic drivers failing randomly. and all this is happening just when ive customized it to a point that im satisfied with it :\ so id realy rather just use the ubuntu disc as a repair disc rather then overwrite the whole thing, is it possible?

Just reinstall from the CD. Don't forget to back up your home folder though.
If you only want to use Ubuntu as a repair system, you can use the LiveCD for this purpose. This way you don't even need to install it on the harddisk.
