Have u tried reading official Fedora 7 Installation Guide
*docs.fedoraproject.org/install-guide/f7/en_US/

Also there is also a Sticky on Linux (Guides for different distros)
*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=42049

(I got the first link i gave you from there.)

So next time, search before posting or atleast have a look on stickies.

what tutorial you require to install, just pop in the media, boot the system and follow simple screens, as you will not be doing any high level configuration writing scripts, just select the software you want and just releax till it finishes its job:p

Multiple Booting in not a problem with GNU/Linux .. Fedora 7 is bundled with Grub and it is powerful enough...AFAIK this is required for windows installation
Code:
title <M$ OS>
rootnoverify (hd<slave>,<partition>)
chainloader +1

You have to export digit dvd as an .iso file to hdd.there you edit with some isoeditor software like isomaster(for Linux) removing other files except fedora's; save and burn.
