How do I remove Ubuntu and install Windows Vista?

Posted on January 28, 2012 by admin| 1 Comment

I have a Gateway notebook that came installed with Windows Vista (Home Premium). Well, as anyone with Vista may know, Vista has alot of problems with working with certain printers. So I hear about this Ubuntu, thinking I could get it to work with my printer.
To make a long story short, I installed Ubuntu from a live CD. I used its built-in partition editor and one thing led to another and now I have a complete system with the only OS being Ubuntu.
Now I can’t install Vista cause of the whole NTFS thing. I have no partitions.
Basically, I need to know how to format my drive, with a Ubuntu (Linux) OS installed and install Windows Vista (I do have recovery disk).
I know some are going to say just put the disk in drive and reboot, but its not that easy. Remember, Windows needs to be installed on a hard drive that either has a NTFS or FAT32 format or brand new with NOTHING on it…
Any useful help would be geatly appreciated.
Sorry about any typos.
Many thanks to colidian_export…Working fine now!
