Ubuntu can be loaded from a disc or USB.
Just need to select the boot menu and pick the source you want to load from.
Once you install ubuntu it reformats your HDD which means all data is deleted. This means your copy of windows is gone. My advice would be to find your windows key on windows pirate windows when being on ubuntu or download a pirated/cracked version.
Is another way which is finding out what program that is and removing it. Without the need of using ubuntu also saves all your stuff.
