uninstall fedora and install XP again

Asked by ellandrd in Linux, Fedora Linux, Linux Distributions

Tags: fedora, uninstall, xp, install

I've got a spare laptop that has Fedora on it.  The laptop originally came with Windows XP but during my student years, I was converted over to Linux and I've ran Fedora on the laptop since.  Now I'm giving the laptop to a family member and they want Windows XP on it for there kids etc.

I put my Windows XP install disc on the CD drive and restarted the computer, but after I press any key to boot form CD, nothing is happening - its like the CD is not getting booted and screen just goes black with the CD drive stopping after about 15 mins...

I want to know how to install Windows, since the boot is not possible!

Maybe there is another method?Start Free Trial
