You don't have to. The installer will ask you questions about partitioning, you'll want to chose to erase everything and use the whole disk for Ubuntu.
Make sure any important stuff is backed up! All data will be lost.

I just want to make sure I do evreything correct.

I know the feeling.
Jenda:
Good luck. I'll be in touch tomorrow, if you need anything.
foot foot:
OK, I feel really stupid asking this, but after Ubuntu downloaded onto my desktop I couldn't open it. I checked around and seen that I needed to burn it onto a CD since it was an iso file and when I did that it just burned the exact thing that was on my desktop. I still can't open it. What do I do next?
cymon:
Get nero, from nero.com, the trial will work fine.
Select burn a cd from an image. Just copying the image file to a cd will not work.
Insert it and reboot.
foot foot:
Nero wouldn't DL so I got burnatonce and this came up after I tried to burn it:
Starting write at speed 4...
ERROR: Cannot set write parameters mode page.
ERROR: Cannot setup write parameters for session-at-once mode.
ERROR: Please try to use the 'generic-mmc-raw' driver.
ERROR: Writing failed.
Ihave no idea what that means.
