Thnx ankur.
Can I still ask u a prob? I have tried installing Xp after deleting the partition on which I had installed Fedora.But there is a blackout after the starting Blue screen(initial setup) and Nothing appears for a long time.

So now wat I need to do is recover MBR somehow.or Delete GRUB.

plz explain it in detail.

thanx

First I deleted the Partition in which Fedora was installed from Disk Manager.
Then it Fedora was deleted and GRUB was the only thing I could see.
Now when I try installing XP it shows that "No Hard Disk Detected" But when I install Fedora it is installed easily.But I cannot install XP by any means....

Thanks..

Have you tried uninstalling GRUB:

Hi, don't worry this is a very simple problem.. well u just get a bootable windows XP cd and insert it.. when it ask for booting from cd then click on any key ...
after booting it showing your windows partition like windows xp on c:\windows somthing then press F3 and restart the window without cd it automatically built the MBR and u can accsess your window xp again for further details read this :::::::::
