I wholeheartedly agree with Colin here, I have no idea in what
situation WUBI would be considered best case scenario and never
recommend it for anything. If you're looking for how to dual boot
Ubuntu with Windows then there is already a detailed wiki page
available to help you through the process at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot

That page will show you how to go about setting up a dual boot
environment so Windows and Ubuntu can coexist peacefully.
