It should atke about a minute, depending on the specs of your computer. If it refuses to load at all, you probably have either a damaged disc, or you do not have enough RAM ( 512 MB or greater ).

and a decent cpu. check the disc for any scratches. clean the disc with a couple drops of brasso.

Loading a Ubuntu Linux Live-CD takes some resources on your computer – I believe you should have at least 256-512 Mb of memory available and a decent CPU.
I was unsure to try Ubuntu on my old 350 MHz/192 MB legacy desktop computer, so I tried Xubuntu Linux Live-CD instead. It’s much more lighter on your computer, but it still took some time for me, and felt sluggish. Using a Linux (any Linux) from a Live-CD is always so much more slower than actually installing it on the hard disk and using it from there.
So check if your computer has enough memory and a powerful enough CPU (required specifications should be on Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu websites).
Or, maybe your cd (or the Ubuntu .iso image file you burned on it) is corrupted somehow. Burning Ubuntu on a new cd (after you have checked the integrity of the .iso file by comparing MD5 checksums) might help.
