Sorry I can not help you with Windows, because this forum is for LINUX. You can send an e-mail to the moderator to move this thread to the general forum. Someone or I can help you there.

If you are removing Mandrake, then use fdisk. You may want to delete the partition and then boot with the installation disk.
