If you boot to the Ubuntu media to use the entire disk. This will destroy ALL data so be sure you have made a final backup of all important data from BOTH OSes before you start. This will setup the drive in a default fashion. If you want a separate /home partition then use the 'something else' option. I recommend:

20Gb Ext4 for /
2Gb for swap (I noticed the system has 1Gb RAM)
the rest in Ext4 format for /home

This keeps your user data away from the system and makes backups and reinstalls easier.

Can you help with this problem?
