I would like to uninstall Linux but keep my Windows installation.

What would be the best way to do this?

I see you like to Double-post.

Get a XXXXing clue, you piece of shit Windows newbie.

First, get yourself an education:

How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Sybren was trying to *help* you become a better Netizen by letting you know
that you've make a bad decision in crossposting, while doing it *nicely*

He didn't call you names, he didn't insult you.

Yet, you just couldn't resist acting like a XXXXing retard - could you?

*I*, on the other hand, am a raging XXXXXXX. I won't be as nice.

FYI:

Crossposting is *rarely* needed, and if you do crosspost it should be:

A. Kept to a maximum of 4 groups.
B. Have the 'followup to' set correctly so replies are not crossposted back
and forth as well.

There are established standards for Usenet communications, which are
described and defined in rfc 1855:

RFC 1855: Netiquette Guidelines
http://www.dtcc.edu/cs/rfc1855.html

If you want to use Usenet, then you *need* to follow the standards laid out
within rfc 1855.

Period.

End of XXXXing story.

You may now resume your previous whining about 'how hard Linux is'.

1. We don't give a shit.
2. You obviously deserve Windows - you're welcome to it.

-- XXXX you very much
Love the Management.

If you still have windows on, boot off a MS floppy (or HD if you
can) and use fdisk /mbr. If you haven't and you need to re-format
all MS OS's (not tried this with XP) can't understand linux
formats and will refuse to fdisk the drive prior to re-formating.

BeOS, UNIX's and other linux's have no problem!

Flash! In this fast-breaking news story, yet another clueless newbie comes
before technical volunteers and asks for their help with his personal,
insoluble problems, then, when he finds out what the rules are, he
pretends to have a clue.

Film at 11, unless you've seen this a thousand times before.

A word to the wise. If everyone adopted your standards there would be no
Usenet, because everyone would be clueless, just like you.

First the cross-posting, now this? Yeah... you'll get a lot of help.
Here's a hint. The answer is in this very newsgroup about a week ago. RTFM
and STFW.
