1. We dont live here so theres no need to bump after a day
2. Lemme get this straight, you want windows, grub but no linux?

Ya. Windows. You can toast partitions from windows [installation].

so should i just reinstall windows and that will do it? casue i partitioned my hard drive into 2 one for windows one for gentoo and then gentoo has multiple pasrtitions in it. so just by reinstall windows it will wipe my whole hard drive including gentoo partition?

Well provided you've backed up whatever you think you need to backup, go ahead and torch the partitions
