Hello --

I am new to this forum... I have a dual boot machine with one hard drive dedicated to Linux, but I would like to undo that and claim the drive for Windows XP and make the system exclusively Windows XP. How can I do that?

You should be able to just blow the Linux partition away using XP's Disk Management utility in your Administrative Tools folder. If not, boot into rescue mode from the Linux install CD and delete the partition with Linux's version of fdisk.

If you need more help with that, let us know exactly what distro (including version) of Linux you're using.
