I do not want to install Ubuntu desktop to my windows computer, but I want to install on a new hard drive on a separate computer. How do I create an install disk without messing with my current computer.

all you need to do is:
Download an ISO for Ubuntu from this link: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop
Then you want to burn that ISO to a disc or USB drive, for windows I'd use Rufus for USB burning: https://rufus.akeo.ie/ this will also format the usb drive for you.
Make sure you checkmark the "Make Bootable" checkbox so that you can boot of the USB Drive.
Insert the USB Drive into your other computer. Reboot it, and spam the F12 button to bring up the boot menu
Select your USB drive to boot off of it.
Follow this link for instructions on installing it on your other computer: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation

You have to use a DVD as the Ubuntu iso is larger then a CD. – Panther Feb 17 '15 at 03:11
