Just re installation will take 30 minuites.

Boot in to your live cd and just select Install.

In petitioning stage just formate the partition where the old ubuntu is Already there.

Then select the same partition for installation.

Then all other things are same as normal installation.

Go here for a guide for normal installation

Hello Steve,

Each bios is different, and separated from Ubuntu, so it will be hard for us to help you... But unless your hardware is broken, it should not be difficult to boot from the CD once found the good menu. And when you will be booted on the CD, everything will work properly (hope for you).
Good luck !
