Insert Windows XP CD, boot from it, go in to the recovery console when
prompted. Choose windows installation, eneter administrator password. Then
type the command fixmbr which will remove the grub loader.
Then you can boot in to windows and remove the Linux partition using the
windows disk tools.
Hope that helps.
