            i would have recommended trying it out on something other than your main computer if you're a first timer :P

            keep at it though and you'll figure it out. it's a different OS than windows but ultimately easier and more intuitive.

                You might be able to still get the photos. Connect the HDD on the slave cable on the second computer (put the HDD pin to secondary) and try to boot it up. It will probably work because from the way you described the problem the hard drive doesn't sound physically broken but you should be careful about doing this so you don't destroy the other computer.

                You should install Ubuntu before trying to do too much through the cd. It only offers limited access to your hard drive (from what I found anyways) and system control on the Live CD.

                            Why burn? Get a program like Daemon tools or isohunt or whatever and mount them. I am a complete tool when it comes to computer (its why I am not even gonna touch ubuntu, because I will fuck it up beyond belief), but even I know how an iso works!

                              Gah why didn't you just use what Saturn V or somebody recommended.

                              http://wubi-installer.org/

                              I'm on Ubuntu right now solely because of Wubi. It was so freaking easy. Just have the ISO or the CD in your drive while running WINDOWS, run the executable, and voila there isn't even a step 3.
