When installing windows 8.1 from usb flash drive with three hard drives plugged in ubuntu broken win7 and 8 how can you know which drive to install to you need to keep Linux win7 and win8 must go?
If you want to dual-boot Linux and Windows 7, you will need to install Windows 7 first and then Linux. I would rather recommend installing each on OS on a separate hard drive with a separate boot record. To achieve that, you need to disconnect all hard drives but one you want to use for OS. Finish installation and disconnect the drive with freshly installed OS. Connect next drive and install other OS. Once you have finished installing all OSes. Connect all drives and use BIOS boot menu to choose from which drive to boot.
