Question Ubuntu 8.04

Ok so as I am sure you all know Ubuntu released their latest version recently. I have been attempting to install it on my pc and have had some problems. I am using the wubi-installer. Everything downloads fine. I reboot and I boot ubuntu and it does its thing and then reboots but i am getting a "Error 15: File missing". I have tried downloading the 8.04 iso directly from the ubuntu website as well thinking my iso had been corrupted but i still get the same error. does anyone have any suggestions?

Default

download the iso from a different location, and then after download, find instructions on ubuntu.com for how to check md5sum. then, boot into it, and go to check cd for defects. if something comes up in md5sum, download it from different location again. if it is only corupted once it is on cd, then burn it at a slower speed.
