Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, just like most Linux distributions, will happily co-exist on a hard disk drive with just about any version of Windows up to and including Windows 7. This is a concept known as dual-booting. Essentially, when you power up your PC you will be presented with a menu providing the option to boot either your RHEL installation or Windows. Obviously you can only run one operating system at a time, but it is worth noting that the files on the Windows partition of your disk drive will be available to you from RHEL regardless of whether your Windows partition was formatted using NTFS, FAT16 or FAT32.
