Ok, so on my main machine, I installed the 64bit version of Edgy a few weeks back. And due to the fact of nothing working with that version (flash, etc etc) I decided to remove it, but I had no idea of the proper method.
So I booted to the live CD, used the partion manager on the CD and deleted all the Linux partions, great right? Well, thats what I thought at first.
I rebooted, posted as normal, then, it tried to load GRUB(which I thought was GONE) but apprently not, it obviously cant find it, and gives me an error, not allowing me to do anything or boot into XP Pro.
Fearing that I would loose all my data, I tried to install the 64bit version again, so I could boot normally, but now, I get an error saying it cant resize my HD.
WTF happened and how can I fix it? I would love it if I didnt have to wipe my whole HD, but that looks like my only option as of now.
And yes, I am very new with Linux.
