It depends on linux system\nBut most of them you should repartition it in linux setup

ntfs is a type of file system which is very reliable, but windows98 can not read it, and fat32 is out very old one in which we install windows98.

When you boot to the Windows CD you will come to a part that allows you to re-partition your hard drive.  Use that to delete the Linux partitions.  Next create a Windows partition.  The rest should be easy.

Use Daemon Tools to mount the .bin files.  .bin cant be extracted, Mounting an image is a way of tricking your computer into thinking there is another CD or DVD drive on your computer.  You can download Daemon Tools at www.download.com for free.\n\nGood luck :)

NTFS is read only under Linux. The best work around is to buy Paragon NTFS for Linux. For $20 you will be able to have read/write functions in Linux for NTFS. There are projects working for free alternatives as well.

If you want to keep linux (i dont know why you would want to keep it) you are going to have to do whats called a disk partition (i believe for linux the program is called disk drake) and then once you do that pop in your windows cd and select the empty partition to install windows on.

If you have Windows Home then it may not show.  Disk Mangament requires that you convert the disc volume to a dynamic disc, as well.\n\nWhat you -need- to do is learn how-to FDISK(search on google for a tutorial), a DOS (disk operating system) command.  You can access the command prompt via: Start --> Accessories --> Command Prompt.  You will need to create two primary paritions/volumes (the term is interchangeable).  You will need to install linux on the first parition and Windows on the second.  The FDISK command will also let you choose which parition is to be set to active.  You will have to set the first partition to Active to run linux, and the second one should be active whenever you wish to run Windows.\n\nGood luck!

I don't think so. I am not an expert on PCs, but I know that everything is STORED on the C: Drive. The D: Drive is something else..it MAY be a CD drive, it may be the appliations...not sure. But I am 95% sure that you can not store thiungs on the C: Drive.

I really dont think that is possible. \nYou will have to partition the drive while installing linux. I think that is because linux uses its own type of a file system other than windows. \nWhen i installed Mandrake on a pc that was already running windows 2k, the mandrake installation made a partition of its own n installed. However, it was dual boot.

Hi Peter,\n\nYou have a number of options. First one would be to give the 'everyone' group full permissions on everything on all your NTFS folders - and then modify them when your windows has been reinstalled. Or you can not change anything and simply 'take ownership' of the files when you are in your new windows install - there is a knowledgebase article on that here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308421. If you do that with the USB drive, it's advisable to give everyone read and write access otherwise yes, if it's permissions are only for your local account on a local computer you will have problems accessing it. I wouldn't bother formatting it with NTFS unless you need it - format it with FAT32 and all NTFS permissions are lost when you copy everything across.

easiest way is delete the linux partition and format it. go to conntrol panel/Administrative Tools/comp managmeent under disk management if u click that u should see all the partitions... delete all the non windows partition and then rigt click on ur new empty space make it a logical drivae and voila u can format and use it again with windows. i assume  u have windows xp

You may want to run a virus scan on it.  It doesn't sound good.  Try to backup your data file as soon as possible.  The last resort is to format your drive and start over with installing windows.  Good luck.
