Installing windows 7 FROM Linux?
SO i finally found the right iso. (I'm not paying $100 + for an OS) I extracted it, changed it to an executable file, then ran the setup.exe through wine. The problem is, when i click the big install windows button, I get an error message: "Windows setup cannot find a location to store temporary installation files. To install windows, make sure a partition on your boot disk has at least 727 megabytes of space. Error code 0x80070490." This is weird because I at least have 200 gigs of storage left on my hard drive. What do I need to do to replace Ubuntu with Windows 7? Do I need to make a separate partition? If so, please tell me how. Thanks guys!

While burning iso image, burning process stops, but says 100% completed?
First, I would need to know what software you are using to burn the iso image. It's hard to answer a question about a piece of software when you don't know what the software is....lol. Edit: That's the problem. ISO images must be burned using an iso burning software. This is true for any iso image especially bootable images. Try CDBurnerXp or ImageBurn. Both are free and burn bootable iso images. Dragging and dropping will never work for iso images. If you need further assistance you can email me via my profile and I will tell you where to post so that I can give you step by step instructions. This is not the proper forum for the type of communication that is required to give step-by-step instructions.
Could I install Linux and Windows on the same computer?
Yes this is known as Dual booting. Most popular Linux distributions like Ubuntu will automate the process and do it for you. Back up your data before you mess with the partition. So basically if Windows is already installed on the machine then just boot to your Linux media and select install. Again this will be different depending on your choice of Linux but the process is basically the same. After you select Install another option should come up asking if you want to set up a Dual Boot configuration. Select yes to this option. Keep in mind that the Windows Boot Loader will now be overwritten by the Linux one. If you uninstall Linux later your Windows partition wont be able to boot and you will need to perform a partition repair to recover the boot loader.
How long does it take to install Windows 10?
I am tired of people especially programmers and IT companies assuming we all have superfast internet, herein rural france we only get 1.2mbps not 50mbps so to download 4gb will take 12 - 18 hours, it will usually fail so I use a torrent stream but this has to be provided by a trusted third party developer, why dont you people that have influence over tech companies encourage them to use the torrent method of distribution that can trickle down from multiple source and pause, stop and resume with no problems ......!

How do I make Linux my main operating system?
Right now I have Windows 7, but I want to switch over to SUSE Linux. I have read that if you have Windows you can run Linux as a program, but I want it as my main operating system. How do I do this? Also is it possible to make it where my main operating system is Linux when I turn on my computer, but still have Windows 7 installed? I searched but didn't see anything on the internet so if anyone knows of a guide and will post it, I would be very appreciative
