Ok here is my problem. I am typing this from a vista computer that i downloaded the ubuntu iso file onto. now I want to burn/write/copy or what ever they call it I want to put ubuntu onto the "NX2 nexxtech 16x 4.7gb dvdr" and then boot ubuntu on a windows xp tower I have. I used ISORECORDERV3 to "copy image" to the dvd now i also made my xp "boot" the cd drive FIRST and second and Floppy third and then hard disk LAST i put the dvd with the iso burned onto it but now it just goes a few minutes on a black screen then boots xp. I will soon make a youtube video on the problem Decribing everything on my account called "bookworm0303" once on youtube search for bookworm0303 needs help installing linux on his xp.

Ahha!

It's a bad burn. Don't "copy image", "burn image" instead.

Look at "BurningIsoHowto" on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
