Would you please post an article on Uninstallation of Linux from a machine which has got Win XP and Linux on it.
My Laptop (Acer 5570) has got Ubuntu and Windows XP (Licensed Version) on it. I need to delete grub and linux. I searched the internet and I am sorry to say that I didnt get a satisfactory advise from any site or tech forums. Linux gurus never go for dual boot. So they also were not able to help.
Could you kindly help me by posting an article on this issue?

How to do it:
1. Boot up in Windows xp.
2. Start>>control panel>>administrative tools>>computer management
3. Go to disk management under "storage"
4. Select your hard disk and then the linux partition.
5. Delete the linux partition this will delete linux and grub.
6. Now reboot your laptop with windows 98 start up disc or floppy and type the command "fixmbr" .
7. Above command will repair ur bootloader and rewrite ntldr which will replace corrupted grub.
