    Ok, yesterday night i installed SuSE Linux 8.2 Personal and had a few problems but got it installed, but now when i turn on my computer it always boots Linux instead of windows. I can only get into the linux safe mode(issues with my monitor) and the boot setup. i need to know how to change it back to where my Windows XP: HE boots as the main OS. sry if i sound like a n00b. thx for any help you can give me!

    Download GAG from this website, and follow the instructions on the site, and install it to a floppy, then reboot with the floppy in your computer, good luck.

    umm, yeah, that didn't really work......is there any other way to get to windows or delete linux? or maybe even System Restore?

    umm, if i use my win. XP disc to install it, will it delete all the files i had on my computer?

    edit-ok i think i figured out the gag thing and i can see 4 partitions, one is the A: drive, one is Hardware Diagnostics and the last 2 are Windows and Linux but they both say cannot boot sector or something like that. how do i fix this?

    Did you specify the right icon? Are you suer you specified the windows icon for the windows partition? And what is the exact error?
