How do I do it? I need my extra hard drive space from linux & I want a normal boot. Keep in mind I do not have my windows xp disk. So what can I do?

somewhere there should be a menu.lst file. I think it is in boot/grub/
You can change the settings in that to basically eliminate the grub menu.

To actually remove linux you can use a live cd to reformat the linux partition, then resize the windows partition to use the freed space (the whole drive).
All while maintaining your current windows settings, files, etc.

I had an issue I just really need the space so I made a Gparted cd but it wouldn't let me increase my partition space o.o All I did was resize the linux partition to like 3 gbs & I have 17 gbs free that I cant get ;/

Edit: nvm found it! So E: Shall be for games :)
