this way, ubuntu can be removed with the click (or 2 clicks to be exact) of a mouse
insert disk while running vista
then once its done, restart your computer, there will now be an option to boot up into ubuntu (vista will be default os)
boot into ubuntu and it will do a check for F---ups and you have a shiny ubuntu desktop

you dont need to go searching for codecs
open the terminal, and copy and paste this:
Code:sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
(rigtht click and select "paste")
