Hey guys i downloaded linux not that long ago and i just dont enjoy using it so therefore its just a pain to have along XP as I decided to dual boot.

Soon I will be installing windows 7, will I be able to do it so that windows 7 will replace both XP and linux so that I only have one OS and to do this will I just have to delete both the partitions? or...?

Thanks alot

Abarb is right,there are a couple of regulars here that can help you with Linux.
But yes if you install a fresh install of Windows 7 youcan wipe Liux and XP off the machine completely.

Yes, definitely both are different type of Operating System, So both can't run at the same time on your machine. So, you need to use one at a time.
