Excellent guide to dual booting here, I'm guessing you might want to hang on to Windows for a while?

http://members.iinet.net/~herman546/index.html lots of helpful screenshots - I like piccies :lol:

Unetbootin Wiki guide here http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/unetbootin/wiki/guide

Hope these help?
