I have a dual boot Linuxmce\XPmce2005 machine and Ive decided to keep my htpc windows only. Is there anyway I can remove the Linux install and boot straight to that without damaging the mce install??? Thanks in advance.

You can use something like partition magic to remove the linux partition(s) and probably even merge it into your ntfs partition.
Then to get rid of grub/lilo you just have to boot into the recovery console and use fixmbr and maybe fixboot.

On second thought.... I recommend GParted over Partition Magic.
BTW I forgot to mention it above, the Recovery Console is a feature on the XP CD, I assume MCE has it too.
