Trouble UNinstalling Ubuntu and installing Windows Ult. 7 32bit

Okay, so I decided to buy cheap used laptop before I really checked it out. Trusted a freind...

It has Ubuntu operating system ... I bought a BRANDNEW Windows 7 disc from my college ($7.50 + tax for a student!!!)

I put in Win7 disc - tapped F12 - chose "CD/DVD/CD-RW Drive" for the desired boot device.

It says something like "press any key to...." - but whether or not I press any key, it goes from that screen straight into loading "Ubullpoop"... i mean Ubuntu....

Any help???????????!!!!!!!

UPDATE ---- randomly after trying it a couple more times... A window popped up that said ......

Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
2. Choose your language settings, and then select "Next."
3. Click "Repair your computer."

if you do not have this disc ..... blah blah.

Status: OxcOOOOOOf
Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccesible.

Welcome to the Windows forums greaterthings.

Are you sure that the brandnew windows 7 disk is bootable and not an upgrade disk?

Normally I touch the space bar when the boot from cd rom line comes up with a bootable cd/dvd in the rom drive.

YES I am sure it is not an upgrade. This is the complete Windows Ultimate 7 32bit version. I'll check the spacebar thing....

dell inspiron 6400

did spacebar thing... now page is black BUT with a "Windows is loading files...." status bar... It isn't moving at all and has been on that page for 3-4 minutes.

finally loaded with the same screen as in my 2nd post
