I have a hard drive with a WinFAT32 (primary) partition and Linux (extended) partition. I want to restore it to all Windows but I need to delete the Linux partition and Microsoft's Fdisk can't do it. It detects aa logical drive in the extended partition and you have to delete it before you can delete the partition. But when I tell fdisk to delete the logical drive, it says it can't find any. I used SUSE Linux to creat the partition but the software I have will only create a Linux system, not delete it. Is there a Linux partitioner that can help me?

I use this one often. Please ensure you have a good backup of important data.
