Subject: How do I go back to Windows?
I've installed Linux, and using Wine, my games won't work anymore. How do I go back to Windows XP for my games? Or can I? Did Ubuntu delete everything that is not part of it, because I don't see a way to boot up into Windows on startup. Any help is appreciated.

Well, it depends... a) did u installed it in its own partition, i mean a dual boot? or b) Did u installed Linux on the whole hard disk? ...If u chose the second i have bad news for you. ~ By the way, wine is not a gaming-console but just an emulator to some aplications. For the gaming stuff in Linux u could try Cedega, but it costs money. [Modified by: Peter on May 31, 2008 09:08 PM]

if you selected the whole partition where windows was installed on, and probably checked the format box, then no...
