i had a xp ubuntu dual boot. I didnt need ubuntu so I opened disk manager,(on a mac, cant remember names) and i just right click the linux partition, which included a 8gb partition and a 800mb partition. so i right clicked each and clicked delete partition, so it then said unalocated partition. I proceeded to restart even though I wanted to add the space back to xp but didnt know how. and when I restarted I was greeted by a warm error 22. what the crap. what now? It better be simple... something allong the lines of live cd? idk.

no fing way! I have spent a crap ton of time, modding, installing drivers, and I have a bunch of programs on there! And the files are backed up but I dont want to delete them(I do have them backed up)!
ANY other solution? How should i delete a partition in the future? also, I have no windows cd, and my brother hates linux. |
