Koha and Dspace are best suited for Linux operating system. For beginners, It would be your dual boot machine. Before installation of koha via live dvd, make sure you have 10GB or more free space. Download live cd/dvd from internet the burn this iso image in dvd. Insert this dvd in the tray and reboot. select to boot from cd, click on it. After that you can install Linux with Koha in another partition along with your Windows O/s with out harming it.

 1. select install  next 2. select English next 3. preparing to install koha click on continue. 4. installation type here click on Click on something else, continue 5.choose the free space, double click on it. A popup will appear mention the space you would like to provide for you new installation, then select /   then ext4 then next next next. And your machine got a Linux o/s with Koha. just restart. PS no need to create root or swap for your purpose if your machine has GB or more ram.   Each time you boot your machine GRUB will display to choose Windows of Linux to start. Therefore with out uninstalling windows you will have Linux in your machine.

Try this for any difficulty write on www.facebook.com/subhasish.karak   I will try my level best for your installation.

Self learning is the best learning.
