Just wondering if it was possible to install windows (xp or newer) after the bootloader is hacked.
I got bored and looked at all the minimum requirments and the nook tablet meets all of them (except for hdd requirents for vista and 7) however i don't know anything about processor architecture and compatibility.

I don't mean to smash your dream, but there is a 0% chance of that happening. Window XP will not work on ARM.
Windows 8 will be the first version with an ARM port and I seriously doubt even the Nook Tablet has the horsepower / memory / emmc space to run it.

I am considering buying either a Archos 43 (16 gig) -OR- a Samsung Galaxy 5 media player.
They are similar in size although the 5 is newer and prob technologically better since the 43 came out 3 or more years ago.
I like the Android operating system. But it has a few quirks. So I like Ubuntu since it's FREE! and it's kinda like windows...
What I want to know is how to put Ubuntu on either devices as simply as possible .
I am giving the 43 the edge since Archos has software to load another operating system (like Ubuntu) next to their Android system.
When I say 'Simply' I mean without rooting.

Easy enough?
If you really want to install Ubuntu you need to install sde

was just going to suggest the same thing
There are very few android devices that have native ubuntu running 100% due to lack of drivers so by running ubuntu in android, sure its a bit laggier but 100% working
I will be buying a new laptop for developer purposes. I will be having a dual boot set up with linux and windows. Which linux would be ideal for all around android development, just the latest ubuntu? And windows XP or 7? And I will probably have a 250 GB hard drive, any suggestions for partition sizes for windows and linux? I will be using the windows side for personal use as well.

Ubuntu would be your best choice for compiling Android from source and overall Android development, as far as what version you can use the latest version of Ubuntu 13.04 just fine if you follow this guide to setting up the development environment on Ubuntu 13.04. For the version of Windows I would definitely go with Windows 7 there is no need to use XP an more, and most program that run on XP will run just fine on Windows 7. A 250 GB hard drive is pretty small for Android development and Windows, as a complete set of builds compiled from source can take up 50 GB + of space easily. If you can get a larger hard drive I would recommend doing so, also the faster the CPU and the more RAM (I would recommend 8 GB) you have the faster compiling times will be. However if you have to go with the 250 GB hard drive (Keeping in mind formatted capacity will be less but for convenience of numbers we'll say all 250 GB is usable) I would devote around 125-150 GB to the Linux partition and the other 125-150 GB to the Windows partition.

so you would do the partitions half and half.
even if i were to get a 1tb

If you were to get a 1TB I would still do the partitions half and half, will you be using Windows for gaming or content creation? If your going to be using Windows for gaming or content creation what I might do is split the storage 60-70% Windows and and 30-40% Linux which would still give you approximately 250 GB of Linux partition space.

Windows XP is really out of date. Modern hardware is not going to be supported very well. Sure you can use it, but I woudln't suggest it for daily. Windows 8 isn't new anymore and most of the workarounds have been devised... no reason to stay 7.
I strongly suggest you investigate your laptop choices as to how easily the hard drive can be swapped in/out. Even one with a DVD/Blu-Ray on a bay that can take a second hard drive. It's ideal to keep the Windows on it's own drive and let you have as many Linux installs you want. Go all GPT partitions these days and I suggest learning EFI if you are going to be a developer
A Small SSD - like 128GB can be $100 or less these days and it's amazing how fast you can copy and duplicate a Linux install and have a GRUB2 menu with many Linux systems. Linux can easily run in a 12GB or 16Gb partition if you put your home and dev stuff on a common working partition. (Fedora 18/19, Ubuntu 13.04, etc). And start to work with virtual machines
Hard drive swapping is so much better than the endless time people spend trying to correct screwed-up Linux installs. it can make playing with new releases fun and easy without worry of trashing your everyday OS install.
I know it's possible to unlock the bootloader for the FHD 10 but how would I boot windows? I noticed people flash rooted images after they unlock bootloaders, would booting windows be the same? Would I need to create a windows image and then flash it like one would a rooted image?
Here's how to root the FHD 10 . Flashing full versions of windows 8.1 on and android x86 device seems like something no one has done yet. It will be awesome when it happens though.
Technically the hardware could support Windows 8, but I doubt we'll be seeing anyone trying to bring the OS to the ME302C. There just aren't enough developers interested in the tablet and it's not as simple as putting windows onto a new computer is.
windows on mobile devices (all versions) does not get as much support as android. and they are not open source so their hacks and mods are very few.
A $250 Win 8 tablet will draw in developers. I believe a lot of Asus Transformer Prime Devs will be interested.
As for installing windows, your right, tablet bios' are very basic.Either a bios will need to be ported or something like twrp2 could be used to make flashing a windows image manageable.
The biggest problem is getting things to work on x86, even the asus bootloader unlock was written for ARM and needs to be recompiled.
Another problem is storage. Even 32GB is not enough for Windows (not RT).
If you managed to install OS on SD, it's a different story.
Windows 8.1 has a minimum storage requirement of 16 GB. Installing programs would be best on a micro sd card. Although the fhd comes in both 16 and 32 gb. Enough to install microsoft office and some other productivity apps without a sd card.

My best advice is to try running Ubuntu in virtual box. I've done it before without much trouble on windows 7. I recommend checking out this thread for that. It's been a huge help to me in the past. And you can find video tutorials on how to build over here.
If you just wanted to compile twrp or a kernel it probably wouldn't be a problem with those specs. You're probably going to have a lot of issues trying to build an OS with a system like that though. That's simply not enough RAM. Compiling loves ram. I've ran out of memory trying to build with 8gb of RAM in virtual box before. Your CPU specs are also very important here. You'll want at least 4 cores to run the box by itself. It is very system intensive, and can easily make your host OS inoperable while running. I have the following specs, and virtual box will cripple my PC if I try to build an OS on it.
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 @3.8GHz (6 cores, 12 threads)
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1050 (3gb)
Ram: 8gb DDR4 @2800MHz
6TB HDD (7200rpm)
For simple projects it's very useful, but for OS building in vitual box you really need a very beefy machine.
Languages: Linux, and lots of it. There's no way around that. You'll also need to be very familiar terminal commands. It is not for the faint of heart. I wish you luck.
Do you think there's any way to install WIN 10/11 on our tablet? (No emulators)[Dual Boot Maybe], even the ARM version works.
I am also ready to install (dualboot) chrome os (CloudReady), but for that we need the device to boot from live usb which maybe isn't available on our tablet, and if it is, please guide me.
I've done my part of research and I've been using the tab s 7+ for about 4 months now. I need windows or a full on chrome desktop experience of windows. My last resort for this will be Linux/Ubuntu, which i am not willing to go for, but will do if i have no other option.

I haven't heard of anyone installing windows 10 even windows 11 on an android tablet like the tab s7
Your best bet would be Linux or smth like that because the kernel would be similar.
Windows can’t be installed because Windows use a different kernel process from Linux and android, nonetheless, I don't know if anyone has managed to run it.

Won't happen.
The bootloader will not allow it and Win 10/11 does not support the Qualcomm 865 SOC.

I don't think the 845 was supported either, yet the Oneplus 6t runs Windows 11 though
Here's Windows 11 running on a OnePlus 6T months before it gets Android 11 [Video]

It loads and kinda runs, but core SOC features do not work.
So no, the 845 is not "supported".
No network, no bluetooth, no sound, partially functioning GPU... that's not a functional device.
An of course the high risk of bricking your device.
it is windows 11, idk if windows ARM would run it but idk, i rather not risk breaking my phone for installing windows

You can't directly install Windows on an Android tablet, but you can certainly use it on one. Here's how to use Windows on an Android tablet.

I wish this was possible .. now i am selling my tablet over this hhhh i mean cause i need to run windows
While the Windows 11 ARM Versions start to slowley emerge for some android devices, give Parsec a try for your Remote Desktop work. It differs from RDP, since over parsec you can actually use the Host PC's GPU.
There are some android tablets that have Windows 11 up and running: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Xiaom...devices-that-can-run-Windows-11.604674.0.html
