Can/t believe you did not like Ubuntu?????How do I reinstall Windows OS to replace Linux Ubuntu?Call Tech support for the computer company that makes the computer you use, and ask for a recovery disk.
I've Had to do this before, and i recommend if they ask what operating system you bought it with, get the newest one possible, (i got windows 7, for free on my netbook after dabbling in ubuntu netbook edition)
or i can send you full disk image if you want, i got an install Disk at the house, all you have to do is activate it over the phone with microsoft after you burn the CDHow do I reinstall Windows OS to replace Linux Ubuntu?Do you have the Windows CDs. If yes boot the computer up with the CD, have it delete the current partitions and then format NTSF, when it finishes it will install Windows. If you don't have the CD you will need to get one. If you run Ubuntu and use the partition program gparted, see if there is an NTSF partition on the far right hand side. If it exist and says NTSF, then the Factory Default Recovery partition still exist and you might be able to recover it back to the way it was bought. Sorry to hear that you accidentally did the whole hard drive.
