Hi, To remove linux partition you can use linux own fdisk. U sing fdisk delete all linux partition be care ful not to delete windows partition, based on size of partition Identify the partition which has windows & dont delete that partition.
Then boot on windows or MS-DOS using floppy give the command FDISK/MBR to rewrite Master Boot record.

hi!,
to remove a linux partition, dont ever use fdisk, you will lose your win partitions as well. use some other softs such as partition magic or ranish partition manager. and then boot the pc with startup disk and give the command fdisk /mbr to clear mbr. this should get your work done. should you have any questions please drop them at cruxtech@rediffmail.com
