Default Problem Uninstalling Fedore Core

Hello there

I wanted to unistall Fedora Core1, so someone suggested deleting the
partition. I booted with Windows 2000 Pro and deleted the partition
containing Fedora. When I restarted my system all I got was a command
propmpt. What can I do to retore to Windows 2000?

Thanks a lot.

Boot from the Win-2000 cd and repair the installation, the Fedora install
probably had GRUB or LILO taking care of the boot partitions.

Or boot from a win-98 floppy and run: fdisk /mbr ( don't know if it works )

Hello Conny

You were right. GRUB was indeed GRaBbing my computer, but FDISK /MBR
just did its job well. Thanks a lot buddy.
