you need to download the liveCD not the alternate. And yes you can install it without reformating your hard disk.

Download the liveCD from here:

http://ubuntu.osuosl.org/releases/ja...sktop-i386.iso

Then once downloaded, burn it to a disc and then run Wubi off of it. That will install Ubuntu inside of windows and allow you to dual boot windows and ubuntu

If you got the regular Ubuntu .iso

Use this Application, I have used it off my flash drive, and in UNetbootin, you can select Ubuntu 9.04 LIVE, so install needed

You can mount your current harddrive and retrieve the files through the console, but if you have no actual experience with Linux (or UNIX), then I am afraid you're out of luck.
