You don't have to "uninstall" Ubuntu, it's an OS. Just install winbeurk over the existing OS (on the same partition).

Hi,
Dear Franzux, Your advice re Ubuntu "uninstallation" is highly appreciated. I just had an idea: Suppose I wanted to keep Ubuntu and Windows loaded in the same PC (120 Gb of hard disc). Would that be possible? And how? P.S. Your English is great. Very friendly, Cronatex |
You can of course have Ubuntu and Window$ on the same PC, it's called a "dual-boot". In this case, you have to install first windows and then Ubuntu (because windows erase the master boot record !).
You have 2 possibilities : 1) You prepare a virgin partition before your installation of windows. 2) You install windows on all the hard drive and then Ubuntu will offer you the possibilitie to resize the main partition. When you'll install Ubuntu, it will install Grub, which is a bootloader. Then when you start your computer, you'll have the choice between the differents OS installed on it. Friendly, Franz.

Dear Franz,
Your explanation was of great help to me. It was clear and informative. What I do now - I'll download windows on a new clean partition, and I'll see what to do next. Hope it will leave my Ubuntu intact, and I will have both OSs on my computer. I'll let you know about the result if you do not mind. Gratefully, Cronatex |

If you install windows after Ubuntu, it'll leave your Ubuntu intact but you'll probably have to reinstall grub because windows will erase it.

I'll have it in mind re Grub. I'l keep you posted on the result. Best rgrds, Cronatex

Get a windows 2000 cd........... make a partition steps.
relove all ext3 partitions. make a new partitions NTFS / FAT32 .......... then restart & check, insert a windows xp cd........... install .......... again make a partition then install windows xp done. ur problem is solve. BASIC FUNDA:- you need windows NT base system to uninstall Linux & Install Windows. |
