Mohamed:

Did you look into editing the boot.ini file to add Linux to your boot 
menu?  This might be a solution and is how a team I worked with made it 
so we could boot six different versions of Windows.  I know of several 
folks that boot Windows and other operating systems through this method.
Since I don't know which partition you installed Linux into, I will not 
attempt to show how this is done, but the file should be self-explanatory.
