Can you install windows 7 on Kindle Fire?
No, they both use different processor architecture, one of the many reasons a copy of windows 7 would be incompatible with the Kindle Fire. Kindle Fires use ARM processors, mobile optimized processors. Windows 7 runs on Intel Core architecture. One way to get Intel Core software to run on ARM Architecture is through emulation, but the Kindle Fire is not nearly powerful enough to emulate this, as the basic rules of emulation say that a product must be at least twice as powerful as what it is trying to emulate to work properly.

It is not possible to install any Operating System next to another on the same partition. To dual-boot Windows 7 and Windows XP, first install Windows 7, and while in the partition manager, delete all partitions and create one for Windows 7 and one for Windows XP. Then install Windows 7 to it's partition. Then install XP to it's partition. You should now be able to boot either Operating System.
Note: You must install XP after Windows 7 as the Windows 7 installation wizard would want to upgrade XP.

How do you install RPM packages in windows?
While RPM was originally part of the RedHat Linux distribution, RPM viewers / extractors are now available for most platforms including Windows. A search on 'RPM Viewer' or 'RPM Windows' will come up with more than a few options, such as IZArc, 7-Zip and BitZipper.
Well, RPM is the RedHat Package Manager and RedHat is a distribution of Linux. To make use of .rpm packages under Windoze one would need to run some type of virtualization (for example, VMware). RedHat Linux can then be installed as a virtual system and the .rpm package can be installed within it. The .rpm package format is somewhat of a defacto standard and many different flavors of Linux can deal with it.

Recommendations
Symantec Security Response encourages all users and administrators to adhere to the following basic security "best practices":
Use a firewall to block all incoming connections from the Internet to services that should not be publicly available. By default, you should deny all incoming connections and only allow services you explicitly want to offer to the outside world.
Enforce a password policy. Complex passwords make it difficult to crack password files on compromised computers. This helps to prevent or limit damage when a computer is compromised.
Ensure that programs and users of the computer use the lowest level of privileges necessary to complete a task. When prompted for a root or UAC password, ensure that the program asking for administration-level access is a legitimate application.
Disable AutoPlay to prevent the automatic launching of executable files on network and removable drives, and disconnect the drives when not required. If write access is not required, enable read-only mode if the option is available.
Turn off file sharing if not needed. If file sharing is required, use ACLs and password protection to limit access. Disable anonymous access to shared folders. Grant access only to user accounts with strong passwords to folders that must be shared.
Turn off and remove unnecessary services. By default, many operating systems install auxiliary services that are not critical. These services are avenues of attack. If they are removed, threats have less avenues of attack.
If a threat exploits one or more network services, disable, or block access to, those services until a patch is applied.
Always keep your patch levels up-to-date, especially on computers that host public services and are accessible through the firewall, such as HTTP, FTP, mail, and DNS services.
Configure your email server to block or remove email that contains file attachments that are commonly used to spread threats, such as .vbs, .bat, .exe, .pif and .scr files.
Isolate compromised computers quickly to prevent threats from spreading further. Perform a forensic analysis and restore the computers using trusted media.
Train employees not to open attachments unless they are expecting them. Also, do not execute software that is downloaded from the Internet unless it has been scanned for viruses. Simply visiting a compromised Web site can cause infection if certain browser vulnerabilities are not patched.
If Bluetooth is not required for mobile devices, it should be turned off. If you require its use, ensure that the device's visibility is set to "Hidden" so that it cannot be scanned by other Bluetooth devices. If device pairing must be used, ensure that all devices are set to "Unauthorized", requiring authorization for each connection request. Do not accept applications that are unsigned or sent from unknown sources.

Hope this helps...have a blessed day. Remember God loves you...see:
