[closed] Can I put the windows 7 start menu on the side?

I have been using linux (Ubuntu) and I have gotten used to that one. I duel boot my computer and switch OS's from time to time. I like the menu to be at the side instead of at the bottom like it is in Windows. Is it possible to move it to the side how Ubuntu has it? If so, how can I do it? I am running Windows 7 64 bit.

You can move the Windows 7 Taskbar on its side. You first have to unlock the taskbar by right clicking the taskbar and uncheck lock taskbar (if applicable), then drag the taskbar to its side.
