Problem Booting [after uninstalling Linux on dual boot system]

Hi,
I have recently uninstalled Linux from my laptop because I could not get the network card to work...

Linux left the GRUB bootloader in there and now I cannot start the system.

It says Grub Error 22

I have tried inserting the Windows CD and typing fixboot and fixmbr but it says command not found.

I try the same with the Windows 2000 CD and it works but then says at bootup NTLDR is missing Press any key to restart.

How can I "restore" the Windows Millennium Startup?

 

Probably the best way is to download a tool to zero format the drive, then install windows as normal.

Tools which may assist you can be found in the following links, otherwise google is your friend.

ExcelStore, Hitachi/IBM, Samsung, Seagate, Maxtor, Quantum, Western Digital

 

I have looked all over for solutions all night, I did not find anything useful.

I didn't really want to reformat the drive just because of this.

Is there any other solution?

 

Yes I have already searched this, But these are all for xp.

I have also tried fdisk /mbr

Oh whos that guy... Yes thats me I forgot to post here after I solved it.

Did you search for my name, how did you find that?

 

No, I'm Lostfarmer at that site.

 

If this was a Win98 machine, the quickest way to get it going would be to boot the computer with a Win98 floppy and do this command sys a: c: which would restore the basic system startup files that is needed for this situation.
However, an attempt to do this same command with a WinME boot floppy may result with the message that you need to install Windows ME edition. I am afraid you may need to do an overlay install, or reinstallation of windows ME, this does not mean formatting the drive in this case.

 

Thanks for your suggestion, I fixed this problem with the help of linuxforums.org the command I had to do was,

PATH A:\;C:\Windows;C:\windows\command;

SYS C:

This worked
