Sorry, but 10.04 is a prehistory... Go download 11.04 better and try Ubuntu Classic GUI.

Windows: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/windows-installer
Because wubi installs Ubuntu as a program. Download page is just boot cd. You install it not from windows. Wubi is run from windows. Wubi is exe downloading the cd and installing it.
I ran from Ubuntu 10.04 from standard installer, no wubi. And dual boot worked always.

Guys, choose Ubuntu. The best choice for beginners. Now as I'm more hardcore I'm trying Debian
