I do not think you should drop Linux forever. And also you can always mount your linux partitions using ext2fsd in windows 2000/xp. If you want to get the partitions back and use them as default windows partitions like FAT or NTFS, use Windows disk manager to format them. You will lose all data on that. You can reach Disk Manager by following START>Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Computer Management(Inside you will find that).
