Few things

Ok, I made a new partition to test out linux. I installed Fedora Core 4, test version. However I now want to remove this. So i used partition magic to format the drive no NTFS, thinking it would just remove linux, and id have another NTFS partition. However the computer would not boot because the GRUB is still there. I had to re-install Fedora Core to get the PC working again.

How can i remove the grub and linux, so i can boot into windows normally like it was before?

Im downloading Fedora Core 3 atm. Is it possible to make that only boot with a floppy disk inserted? So unless the floppy is in, the comp just boots into windows xp? If the floppy is inserted it will boot into Fedora Core 3?

Thanks, I apologise if more info is needed or this is the wrong forum

Sam
