Having trouble deleting partition

[E Money]

So i have tried alot of the options given in other topics. I even downloaded partition magic with no luck. Heres what it tells me when i try to delete through the computer managment option.

"Windows can not delete that active system partition on this disk"

I have deleted everything out of this partition besides adobe, which it wont let me delete because it says i need the 'administers' approval... Who is that? its my computer

I created this partition for XP. Now that i have windows 7 i wanted to clear everything out of that partition and dedicate it only to windows 7 OS. I deleted all other files out of it ( xp, norton, etc ) besides the Program files> Common files> adobe> acrobat> active x which breaks into acroIEhelper, acroPDF, and PDFshell.

Download and burn Ubuntu to a disc.

Boot from the disc and run GParted.

It will let you have your way with your hard drive.

BE CAREFUL. It will gladly let you delete any Windows partition you may have.
