Removing linux

[Da_Elf]

Im hopeing there is someone who can give me advice.

I dual booted my audio station with linux and windows XP using the GRUB boot loader. now i want to remove linux since i dont use it much and id like to get rid of the grub loader. Ive already tried the suggestion ive seen on google about doing a windows repair to re-activate the windows boot loader but its still booting with GRUB. Im wondering if i should just reformat the linux partitions back into NTFS and hope that grub is destroyed that way. although i doubt it since boot loaders are usually stored seperately to your normal hard drive opperations. Ive checked in windows and my boot.ini is still there. i just wish the computer would use it. Can anyone lend me a hand?

No, reformatting your linux partition won't help, that's for sure.
But you'll get some extra hard drive space.

To reinstall Windows's loader, you'll need to boot up to Recovery console. Then use
help fixboot
to see how to use fixboot command.
OR you'll need the fixmbr command, something similar to
fixmbr \Device\HardDisk0
Last thing, to get that fancy drive name, use map command.

help works with everything.

well. fixboot didnt work GRUB was still the booter. so i had to try fixmbr even though there was a big risk. i took the risk and it paid off...in a bad way. im currently reformatting that computer. will probably take about 3 hours to get all my audio drivers back on and all the software re-installed. oh well. these thngs do happen. Thanks for the help
