Hi.
Here is my problem.
I have OpenSuse installed alongside Windows 7. Grub is the boot loader from where I access OpenSuse and Windows 7.
I want to delete Grub and also the OpenSuse partitions.
My first, failed, approach was to insert the Win7 DVD, choose Repair your computer and then enter the commmand prompt. I then typed "bootrec /fixmbr" and restarted. It didn't worked. Grub was still there, so was Windows7. I then tried using "bootrec /fixboot and /rebuildbcd and neither worked.
So what can I do to fix this? I remember when I was using WinXP this was much simpler. I would just type fixmbr and that was it.
Any clues?
Thank you.
