After many happy attempts to play nice with Unbuntu I finally have thrown in the towel, but when you do that Unbuntu still keeps a tight grip on your PC. I, like so many others during installation, added Unbuntu to my bootloader as recommended. However, this posed a problem when I tried to uninstall it.

So, after a minute of Googling I downloaded the EmergencyBootCD (http://ebcd.pcministry.com), which removed the Unbuntu from my bootloader with ease.

1) Once you download this, make the ISO file and burn to a CD.

2) After the CD is made; just insert CD, reboot, change boot sequence, and fire the PC back up.

3) When the program loads choose Number One and go to MBR and that is it.

4) Shutdown and remove CD and the boot loader for Unbuntu has been removed.

Simple? Yes. Easy? Yes. The way Unbuntu should have been but was not.

Having problems with breaking up with windows but still want to have an affair with Linux? Well not to sound like the love doctor but, just make a dual boot system . It is a lot easier and no divorce papers.
