RE: Take the hard drive with Ubuntu on it and either insert it into a different computer as a SLAVE second drive or put a second hard drive in the computer with it and make the Ubuntu drive the SLAVE drive. Once that is done install your favorite utility on the MASTER drive and use it to delete all partitions and then format the slave drive with Ubuntu on it. Boy that`s scary ... you and GMan think the same way ... that was his suggestion also . You two are`nt twin`s that were separated a birth are you ? Just kidding .
