You say you switched to linux. What distribution? What version? What kind of laptop are you running this on? Do you want to keep Windows and dual-boot Linux, or do you want to format the whole drive and start over? If you can provide more information, it'll make it easier for folks to help you. |
Also if you can tell us the machine configuration also , it will be fine .

If you want to have a fresh installation , i.e, only linux then any distro is fine , they are self explanatory ....

What are you using to format the drive? Most linux installers come with some form of fdisk gui that lets you add and delete partitions. Delete the windows one and use the default configuration for linux. Simple, right?
