Why does Wubi only install inside Windows Vista but not as a primary OS?
This is the first time I have had this issue as I have reinstalled or changed a HDD over the past couple of years. My computer is a Dell Inspiron 1545.

I'm sorry but I don't understand the question. Wubi is an alternative Ubuntu installer through Windows. This is wubi, this is what it do. Install Ubuntu inside Windows (not alongside). Actually this is not even a regular installation. Ubuntu is hosted under Windows NTFS filesystem.
Ubuntu Wubi Installer and Wubi Guide for more info.
If you want to change the boot-order, then you should use carefully a Windows tool → EasyBCD
I strongly suggest to install Ubuntu alongside Windows = regular dual-boot.
