Q. I want to make a bootable live usb for both linux(ubuntu) and windows 7...how to do it??please help....
A. The Linux one is easy. Just download and run PendriveLinux with your favourite distro .iso. Select it from the dropdown list when you run it. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ If you make a Persistent file, then it will save changes you make to the installation on the USB drive. I have a really nice Pinguy installation on a USB stick.
Windows 7 is a bit trickier, in that Windows doesn't allow you to do that sort of thing. I doubt that it's possible.

Is thumb-drive-based Fedora slower than said operating system installed to a hard disk?
Q. I've finally convinced my father to let me install a Linux distribution.
The only catch? It has to be on my USB drive. So, I'm going to install Fedora Live USB.
Will there be any differences in speed compared to hard-drive located Fedora? I don't want to have a bad impression of the operating system.

A. A RAM-based drive (which is a thumb drive) is actually faster than a hard drive, which is why Vista allows you to use one as a disk cache - to speed up disk access.
The difference will be speed - you'll gain it. (But a thumb drive has a limited number of writes, which is why that's only a temporary solution. You'll kill the thumb drive in a year, or a few years. An SD card may be a lot cheaper for the same size - if your computer has a card reader.)

How do I recover a fried hard drive?
Q. I just bought a new laptop. It crashed a few weeks ago. Now it crashed again, and the hard drive is fried. Warranty from Dell is expired. I didn't have any important files on there, and I am saving up for a new hard drive. Anything I can do instead of replacing the fried hard drive? I am posting this from a Linux Live CD. Hope you ca help! Thanks!
A. Hard to say for sure since you don't say anything about how it crashed or how the drive is 'fried'..
Pull the drive out of the laptop. Connect it to another PC (possibly with a USB adapter) and delete the partitions. Put the drive back in your laptop. Boot from a windows CD and re-install windows.
