I installed Linux-Mandrake 7.2 Complete and I want to go back to my old trusty 7.1. Durring the install of 7.2 I set the boot logger GRUB into the MBR. I know that to remove GRUB I would have to boot into DOS and type FDISK /MBR to restore the MBR. But, I am using Windows Me and I can't boot into DOS.

you should have a boot disk..if not at start up hit the F8 key that will take you to DOS prompt. but go into your windows and make a boot disk and that should take you to the DOS A: prompt.

hope that helps
