Disabling grub after uninstalling FC7?


Hey, I just wanted to know if grub will also be disabled once I remove FC7 by formatting the allocated drive. I know that will eliminate linux, but will it remove grub too? Cause right now grub prevents me from using F11 to start the system recovery mode. Cause once I hit f11 it starts up. So can I remove grub too? Thanks.

No grub will remain. Assuming you have Windows NT / 2000 / XP, you can boot from startup floppy disks or CD-ROM, choose repair option during setup, and run Recovery Console. When you are logged on, you can run FIXMBR command to restore the MBR to MS only.
