    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    You shouldn't need to do anything. Just tell Windows to use the entire disc. It will happily reset the partition table and install itself on the drive.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
    Just remember, Semper Gumbi - always be flexible!

    if you put grub on it and want rid. Boot off a boot disk, hirens boot cd or anything to get you to a dos prompt.

    then fdisk /mbr

    all should be fine as windoz would be on the first partion
