| I Installed Ubuntu 7.10 on my laptop. I soon realized that I was not ready,(drivers, etc...).Having done a full install, I attempted to use my System restore disk to return my computer to is original config. When I attempted to boot I was presented with: GRUB Loading stage1.5. Grub loading, please wait... Error 17y After several attempts at reformatting and deleting partitions, I am left now with: GRUB_ I'm not a complete novice, but I'm out of my depth |

Basically you boot of an XP CD, R for recovery console, then FIXMBR to rewrite your boot files and remove grub. Then into disk management in Windows and remove/resize your partitions. My System: Hybr!d
