Install the "Ext2 Installable File System For Windows" driver. It supports ext3 as well, and you will be able to see your Linux partition in Windows Explorer as an ordinary drive next to your Windows partitions.

Insert your Windows Operating System disk and reboot.  Check the BIOS settings if it won't reboot.   Once you reboot, begin the installation.  When it gets to the point of WHERE, select that partition for Deletion, then allow the installation program to format the hard drive.  \n\nIf you do not have the Windows installation disk, GET ONE. \n\nGood luck

There might be multiple partitions, i.e a 2GB C: drive and a 18GB D: drive. If this is the case then you can, of course, still use all of the drive the way it is, but if you wanted to make it all one partition you'd need to format the drive and reinstall windows.

Use Fdisk to delete the partition then Reinstall Windows. Doubt its a dead harddrive

well, the easiest and the most reliable way is to download Disk Director partitioning software. It's not safe to operate with windows utilities, because when u create partition within widows  u lose data. Besides, ADDS is rather cheap utility and u won't need to uninstall XP.

Yes, you can, and normally it works fine without the need to reinstall the operating system. However, partitioning a hard drive always carries a small risk, so I would NOT recommend doing this if you don't own the intallation disk for the operating system (presumably Windows XP). Otherwise, if something goes wrong and you need to format the hard disk, you'll be forced to buy Windows XP separately which could be expensive.

go to MS dos mode (not MS dos prompt-go to the real thing). Now insert a cd having installation of windows, and install it, BUT ON D DRIVE. After this is done, give the following commands:-\nd:\nformat c:\n\nI think that should do the trick

Have you got any data on the drive you want to keep ?\n\nIf not just make a boot disk ( www.bootdisk.com ) and use fdisk to partition the drive and then install windows.\n\nIf you do have data then I suggest you connect the hard drive to another machine as a slave and back it up and then put it back into the machine and format it and re install windows.\n\nThere are other ways of backing up the data, please post back and let me know if you need further help.

Yes in newer versions of Windows, type the following at a command prompt:\n\nconvert c: /fs:ntfs\n\nJust make sure it's something you want to do.

If you can run the cd from a dos prompt, go to the winnt directory and run setup from there.  Good luck

You can also upgrade from Windows 98. Boot from the Win 98 CD and format the hard disk, then install.
