To remove Linux, you just have to reformat your hard drive. remember to blow out the mbr from fdisk before you try installing windows - fdisk /mbr. Cheers

I have a 40 GB Samsung Hard Disk. Following are the partitions:
  • 25% C: - Primary partition
  • 55% Extended partition ( has 2 logical partitions, D: and E: )
  • 20% LINUX partition (Red Hat 8.0 based Linux)

I cannot start Linux at all and Grub is installed in MBR.
How do I uninstall Linux and GRUB and reclaim my partition?
