Resently I purchased a copy of linux-mandrak 7.0 and tried to install it. After several attempts i finally got it to install with a dual boot with linux and windows 98se. After using it for a few minutes I decieded that it didn't work with my modem,cd-rom, and printer. So i going to take it off. When i was installing it used the partitioning tool that came with the linux it created a 3 g main partition for linux as well as the swap file. The problem is now i cannot get rid of the partitions. Using Fdisk i can see the non-dos partition with a logical drive partition with is not defined. It will not allow me to delete any of the partitions to get back full use of the hard drive. I have 5.77g to use for windows and a 10.4g hard drive with dead space and no way to get it back. All help would be welcomed!

TIA
