It's generally thought best to install Windows before linux if you want to do a dual boot, but it depends on your experience with both, and also on how you want to do it. Easiest way at this point would be to use a utility like Partition Magic (although I'm not a big fan of the app) and move your partitions around to make a little more space for the win installation. Or you might get a seperate HDD and do the dual boot that way. Either way will require some work on your part and a little knowledge in configuring / getting around in linux. Let us know if we can answer any other questions.

well i have linux and i want to put win back also without losing linux, because i really like it, but have a lot to learn before i can use it day to day.all of my design programs, swish, etc, i had on windows, but i still cant install anything on linux, i`m not dumb, but this is very new to me.if i could get my other machine working i wouldnt worry about it.I still havent figured out why i have no sound.
