Reinstall Windows on a dual boot machine

OK I have a comp with four partitions. I have xp on my primary and redhat 9 on another and I am using GRUB bootloader. I would like to wipe out both my linux and windows installs and not lose the information I have stored on my other two partitions. I don't have much experience with dual boot or linux, so i was wondering if anyone here might know how i would go about it without losing the two partitions i want to keep.
Thanks in advance.
 
Get a Win98 bootdisk with fdisk on it @ www.bootdisk.com Then use fdisk to remove the partitions you no longer want. Also, to remove the grub bootloader at the dos prompt type:
fdisk /mbr .
