You need to delete the linux partitions on the hard drive before you try to install Windows. Google "Partition managers" to find programs that can do this.

Hi :)

just use gnome partition editor to format your hard drive on NTFS
then put on the windows cd and make current install ;))

you can find gnome partition editor "gparted" on live cd here
(you must burn the iso cd)

or on the start menu of your ubuntu live cd

good luck ;))
