I was playing around with suse9.1 a while ago, and now I need it removed.
How do i do it?

i'm guessing i can just delete the linux partitions using fdisk or whatever but i'm afraid to because i'm not sure what will happen to my boot loader if i do that.

It's using Grub, most likely with the default settings in the suse9.1 installation (all i changed is that i want windows to be default instead of linux).

Any help?

err...just for more information here is how the partitions are setup:

Windows XP partition - 5gb (NTFS)
Extra partition for movies, music, etc. - 20gb (NTFS)
Linux partition - 10gb
Linux SWAP partition - 282mb

Those are aproximate guesses of the size but it gives u the layout of my drive i suppose.

Use FDISK /MBR to reinstall the Windows Master boot record.
Make sure your windows partition is the Active partition on the HD.

doesn't that delete the current partitions though?

i had this same exact thing wheni wanted to go back to windows and remove fedora core 3
my suggestion : learn linux on a seperate rig
anyways google for : Darik's boot and nuke.

I don't want to remove my windows partition and the extra partition with music and such...

Format the Linux partition with partition magic or something and then do a fixmbr in the Windows Recovery Console of the XP cd

if its dual boot system, which im assuming it is, then boot into recovery console and run 'fixmbr' then use windows disk management to format the partition

/* edit - just saw Ivand's post */

alright, i'll go try it.
if it fails then atleast i got my music backed up to my iPod.

worked.

thanks for everyone's help.

No problem

edit: nevermind.

and now i will like to tell u to use slackware or ubuntu .. u will like it ...
