As I don't have access to a usb or CD, I have tried to frugal install ubuntu onto my HDD, using Unetbootin. Once turning on I find the dual boot menu to select the OS, and attempt to boot Ubuntu, with no avail. An error appears saying

Windows failed to start.A recent hardware or software problem might be the case.

It then says File:

ubnldr.mbr status: 0xc00007B.

Does anyone know a solution?

It is either a bug or incompatibility in Unetbootin. Rather than try and fix it, it would be easier to buy or borrow a USB flash or CD drive and use that to install. Or, if you really want an install in Windows, use VirtualBox.
