Dual boot with windows

A windows OS should be installed first, because its bootloader is very particular and the installer tends to overwrite the entire hard drive, wiping out any data stored on it. If windows isn't already installed, install it first. If you are able to partition the drive prior to installing windows, leave space for linux during the initial partitioning process. Then you won't have to resize your NTFS partition to make room for your linux later, saving a bit of time.
