"Beware installing it on your windows PC as most Linux versions overwrite the boot loader with GRUB or LILO which works well but is a tough one to back out of if you ever want to clean Linux off the PC in future"
Depends what you define as
tough really.....
To get rid of the Linux bootloader (GRUB or LILO).
Boot to your Windows XP CD and select the first Repair option.
This will put you into the Recovery Console.
You will need the Administrators password.
Run FixMBR (just type "fixmbr" - without the parentheses - and press the ENTER key).
This replaces the Linux boot loader with the Windows one.
Take the Windows CD out and reboot, you'll come up in Windows
Not so-o-o-o bad was it?
Now you can delete the Linux partitions from Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Disk Management. The Linux partitions will show up as Unknown.
You can then create FAT32/NTFS partition(s) in the resulting empty space and format them as usual.
