I installed Vista on another drive from my XP install so i could dual boot. I followed this guide if your interested : http://www.lifehacker.com/software/top/w...ista-179906.php

Anyway I've decided to get rid of Vista for the time being, but to keep XP without a format (of the XP drive) so can i clear the drive with vista on without messing up the boot for XP?

Can i just format the partition i made for Vista and have it back to normal before Vista was even installed?
Or will it still bring up the dual boot screen and get all confused because its not there anymore?
Do i need to edit the boot.ini file?

Thanks for any help :)
