Hello Krister,

It is easy to restore MBR although it is XP, What you need id to put XP installable CDROM and boot the machine in recovey mode. It will prompt you for administrator password , then go to command prompt and run command
d://fdisk /mbr 

If you harddisk have fat partition then you can even use Win98 bootable floppy to boot into system and then run above command.

With regards,
Sameer

Hi everyone. I'm planning on removing my Linux system at least for now.
I have a dual boot machine with Windows XP Pro and Linux on separate
hard drives. Grub is in the MBR, so i guess i'll have to make a new MBR
before i can remove the hard disk with Linux on it, the question is how
do i make a new MBR and do i have to re-install windblows ! in order for
this to take effect?
Thanks for any & all answers.
