-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey Shagun,
I've seen this issue quite a few times. there was even a previous post on this group years ago. You actually have to remove your ext2/3/4 formatted partitions and install windows first. Sometimes the CD just won't boot unless you do this. 1. Backup anything you want to keep on your current Linux install 2. Remove all partitions with a Linux LiveCD or installation CD, then make one partition for windows and another for Linux, but don't format either partition. Reboot without installing Linux 3. Boot your Windows CD...Install Windows to the first partition 4. Install Linux to the second and write Grub to the MBR 5.
