Where do you download MAC and LINUX to put into those folders to start different OS's on boot

You mean, create another partition so you can multi-boot ?

You must go inside your bios and select them. If you already updated all your drivers for it and you went in the control panel (ex. amd catalyst) and they dont show up you may have to uninstall them and reinstall them

You mean dual boot? install linux first and then while installing, create a partition for your mac, linux and win7.

install windows, while doing so make sure to leave 20-30gb of unpartitioned space
insert linux cd/dvd and boot it
start the installation, pick the empty space, select windows as secondary os, finish installation
voila, now you'll have the option to boot into either windows or linux when you start the pc
