    Default Getting Rid Of Grub

    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'm not creative enough to think of a funny sig. Just quietly laugh to yourself and I'll be happy.

    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
