Replacing Linux With Windows 8.1 Preview

[RomanNoodlesX]

So long story short Linux is not for me and i'm switching back to Windows. I'm going to buy a product key by itself and install preview, then use the key to make it a full version. But how do I replace linux with preview?

I would think the best way would be to do a custom install, delete all the partitions off the hard drive and let Windows install on an unpartitioned disk.

I think Linux took up the whole disk. Would it work if the installer was on a usb?

If you don't want Linux or any of the files on it, you can format the disk when installing Windows which will "erase" the disk and write over the existing data.

Edit: You can change the boot priority in the Bios. (Making USB or CD the primary boot drive over the HDD)
