Thank you for your kind reply. But I am quite a  Linux newbie, and don't know
how to repair grub. Can you pls give me  more explanation, or give me a pointer
.

Hi,
 
 I have a dual-boot system (WinXP & Linux), but during further  partitioning,
for some reason it got really hosed up. Now I lost access  to Linux, and I can
only boot to WinXP from GRUB. So, I need to format  the hard drive and
reinstall Windows, but the reinstallation method  provided by Dell (my computer
manufacturer) doesn't work on the  machine. Where can I find help for
formatting screwed-up hard drive and  reinstalling Windows?
 
 Thanks for your help, in advance.
