I had windows XP on my C:\ and fedora on my D:\. I decided I did not like it so deleted the D: partition using partition magic from Windows. This happend fine.
My problem is now when i turn my pc on, it should boot to windows XP on my C:\ . Instead I now get a grub command point.
How do i get back into windows, then how do i solve my problem of booting.

Boot with a Windows XP CD and let setup load
When it finally loads, select the recovery console
Login to the local drive with an admin password
Type FIXMBR
Type FIXBOOT
I believe those are the only two commands you will need
Type HELP to see all of the commands available.

I'm sorry to hear that you've dropped Fedora.
Maybe you'll return some time in the future. It took me a couple of attempts to get my head around it.

I hope you decide to give linux another go some time in the near future. Remember, linux is a power users dream! (IMHO).
