Rajas3,
If you have partition magic you can create a separate partition, but then Windows will overwrite the MBR, so you will have reinstall (LILO or GRUB). This way might get very complicated. The easiest way in my opinion would be to add another hard drive, and install windows, I personally like keeping Operating Systems separated, just incase of problems. I also have never tried installing windows on a Linux box, It's always been putting Linux on a Windows box. This is just my .02¢ Mike
