Remove Linux, no disks
 
I bought a new box a few months ago. Had windows XP and I installed RH 9 on it. I now need the machine as my other one crapped out and want Windows XP back on. It has GRUB and I understand about fdisk/dos to reinstall. BUT, problem is that the machine is one of these built in restore things so I have no disks.

Anyone has experience with this? Or have suggestions/solutions?

If you mean it has a special recovery partition that reinstalls the Windows OS, you should be able to change your grub boot menu to point to the special partition and treat it like a Windows partition to boot.
