The only sensible way to use Linux of any kind is to "dual boot".
You use Partition Magic (or similar) - or you could use qtparted, 
which comes as part of the Ubuntu install disk- to create a 
second (empty) partition, leaving your Windows data intact on the 
other.  You then install Ubuntu on the empty second partition.

Unless Vista has done something diabolical, a grub menu will be 
created automatically and will allow you to choose between Vista 
and Ubuntu when you restart your computer.
