Using Ubuntu as a Live CD
On most systems you can load the ubuntu live CD by inserting the disk and then restarting your system. When Ubuntu does not automatically load you must change the boot order inside the BIOS such that the optical drive is read before any hard disks.
Using Ubuntu as an Application in Windows (wubi)
Please see this much more complete documentation from help.ubuntu.com.

2. Stick in the Ubuntu CD-ROM (*)
3. Select "demo and full installation"
4. Select "Help me to boot from CD"
5. Follow the steps on screen
