It's pretty easy now-a-days.

Most beginner distributions let you resize your NTFS partitions to make room for linux. Just be sure to defrag and scandisk before installing.

It'll then install a bootloader (LILO or GRUB) over your Master Boot Record. That bootloader can boot any OS you want (including Windows and Linux). You just choose at bootup.

So be sure to install Windows first. Windows will mess up linux if you try to install it afterwards (it hates competition :P).
