Default Two OS problems?


Hey guys this is a very big problem. I have three OS in my PC.WinXP, Win98 and Linux. Now I want to uninstall Linux. By companey of linux the best way is :- Just delete that partion and delete Master boot record.
Its easy. But if I delete MBR my partions and all data will be lost.
Is there any other way to uninstall linux.

This solution is applicable if you have windows xp or windows 98 in c:\ drive.

First Delete the linux partition, and restart your machine and put bootable windows 98 cd and boot from the cd. In the command line type fixmbr. After that restart your machine it will boot in your windows. I am sure about the that command as i have forgot it may be i will try and give command.
