    Default Kindly help me.

    Hello friends,

    I have Fedora Core 4 installed on my machine already having Windows 98 and Windows XP.(The hard disk is 120 GB). Now I want to remove Linux ,as I want to create space for my project work. Also formatting the whole hard disk will not be a feasible solution.I am very confused so as to how should I approach this problem.
    Also, I have already removed the Linux partitions(boot,swap & root) from my other machine using the Acronis Partition Expert. But the problem is that now I can't use m Windows 98 and other important data.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi

    Run FDISK /MBR from DOS. This will kill the master boot record.

    You have already removed Fedora when you deleted boot, swap, and root.

    If you had a "home" partition you should have moved the data over to windows before you deleted Fedora. Windows will not be able to access files in the linux formats.
    What were you booting all the operating systems with? Was the linux bootloader installed into the boot partition you deleted? Can you boot Xp?

    If u can run win xp or 98 open control panel>Administrative tools>computer management. now choose disk management and then you will be able to view all partitions and then delete the linux partitions from there and create new Fat32 partition.you will be able to access the space
