This is not a suggestion for a novice computer user! I think the problem is likely to be the use of some kind of alternative partition table rather than the standard MBR. If it indeed that case that the Ubuntu installation CD cannot recognise the partition table and/or NTFS partitions, then you should check their Installation Guide for information on this. If no such problems are mentioned then please file a bug report with them as some novice users (who may not even know how much disk space they have) may erroneously erase their partition table data.
