Question Removing LILO

Hey all...

I want to remove linux off my hdd....removing the partitions is no problem. But how do I get rid of LILO so that windows will automatically load? will a simple fdisk /mbr do? Or is there another way? Thanks in Advance!

lilo -u from within Linux
fdisk /mbr from DOS/Windows

You calling it quits on Linux already?

Oh no...not quits...except I'm gonna reinstall it fresh. Switched a soundcard and linux wasn't too happy....it boots into it fine but after that I basically can't do anything (it's just that it's set to linux by default now on LILO and since I really can't do anything in linux I can't change that). Probably gonna reinstall the Micky$oft OS too (it's about that time) so I just may wipe out my drive completely.
