Re-installing Windows XP
Background.
I use a Mac, my wife has Windows XP on a Dell Lattitude and my son has LinuxMint 8 on his desk top.
Having been v.impressed by Mint I loaded it onto my neighbour's laptop, taking over the whole disk. Can't remember if she had XP or Vista on it, XP I think.
Anyway, she hates the Linux install and wants XP back.
And I can't. I have read much about MS not recognizing the hard disk and I have tried countless times to reinstall including partitioning in Mint. Then the NTFS formatting is unsuccessful.
Help!!!
