Uninstall Ubuntu?

I've done that but then I get like a Grub error 22 on startup that is only fixable by reinstalling Ubuntu..... Unless there is some way around it.....
 
For some reason, everytime time I reformat my Ubuntu partition, upon rebooting, I get a message, saying that Grub 1.5 or something has an 'Error 22'...... How do I completely remove Ubuntu?
 
I think you may have saved your boot loader (grub) onto the ubuntu partition, im not entirely sure how you can get the windows loader back.
 
the second post is referring to your master boot record (mbr) which grub is loaded in. You must wipe out the boot sector so windows can load properly. Or you can edit the grub menu to only load windows. Boot loaders are installed in the boot sector of a HD (sector 0,0) and will load any OS. Your boot loader, GRUB, was configured to load several OSes, now that one OS is missing it is erroring out. for more info check this out

To fix your problem boot from a DOS boot disk or a windows xp cd and go into recovery console mode and type this

Code: 
fdisk /mbr
 
Thanks for the reply although I finally found a way to fix it (and hopefully there won't be any consequences) which involved downloading some stuff and using the command prompt......
