First let me try and outline what you did:

1. Windows was preinstalled
2. Installed Redhat
3. Removed Redhat
4. Now getting the "grub>" when you boot?

If that is correct you need to fix your Master Boot Record.

The best way to do it would be to find a Windows XP installation CD and boot with that. I believe there is an option to fix the master boot record. Sorry I can't remember exactly. Google is your friend also!

HTH,

Centinul
