You are kidding, right? why a newbie would need a winblows server? there are no uninstall OS things as someone may mess up all the things accidently.

Just format the hard disk or delete the partition! If the BIOS setting is correct, you shopuld be able to boot up from a CD. Most people use linux+winblows. You can try to format the HDD like that so you can use 2 OS together. Linux don't write NTFS and winblows don't read linux HDD so it would be safe.

- NTFS (40%)
- Ext2fs (40%)
- linux swap (1G)
- FAT32 (<20%) for data exchange between winblows and linux

search "ranish" in google

you can make a boot floppy in a fd's house and do the partition things. It's much better than ms fdisk
