The Slackware installation process will automatically detect your Windows installation and offer you a choice regarding which operating system to set to boot as default after a specified time period. Just be careful with the partitions and make sure that you don't **accidentally** delete the Windows partition and later complain that you cant start Windows.

There is a tutorial here or just google it.
