Boot Manager In Vista

HELP! Please! I need to restore or redirect the boot manager in Vista to
boot into windows and not into Linux which was removed from my laptop. I
tried using the bcdedit/setsequence command, but I guess I dont have the
correct path. Startup Repair does nothing for this problem. Does anyone know
how I can get back into Vista?

Re: Boot Manager In Vista

Thanks for the reply.... it was close. I got it to work with the command:
bootrec/fixmbr

Re: Boot Manager In Vista

Try using EDIT C:\Boot.ini in the command line and deleting the second block
of text in the file that says linux on it.
