help GRUB
 

How do u unistall it. see what happened first was i had linux 9 on a widows 98 computer which just killed the memory so i took off linux and put in the windows 98 recovery disk and it formated the disk and installed windows 98 back on but when u turn the computer back on it come to a black screen with one word on it and it is the word GRUB. can some one get me detailed instructions on how to remove this, so i can have a normal windows operating computer again. thanks in advance andrew

for windows 98, insert the boot floppy and at the command line type "fdisk /mbr"

Since i haven't used windows 98, i'm doubtful that if he has reinstalled his 98 then why it didn't overwrite the grub in mbr ???
Do you manually require to "fdisk /mbr" in case of 98.???

regards

"fdisk /mbr" rewrites the windows mbr no matter which windows version is installed

in newer version of win u need to use "fixmbr"

regards

Agree.
What i intended to ask was that generally when we reinstall windows XP it automatically rewrites mbr. But here why we have to use "fdisk /mbr" manually ??? Doesn't win 98 after reinstallation, in case of dual booting, overwrites the grub boot loader in mbr ??
regards

just to check that windows was installed correctly,but the MBR wasn't

u can rewrite the win mbr using fdisk /mbr or fixmbr
