Installing Window XP ( Formating Linpus Linux )

My HDD 160SATA

When i try to delete Linpus Linux install partition before Window Xp installation, the following partition display

1,52,626MB Disk 0 ai ID0 on ASTORC (MBR)

E: Partion1: 76309MB {76308MB Free}
UnPartion: 8MB

C: Partion2: [FAT32] 76309MB {76290MB Free}

I would like know

> 160GB= 1,63,840MB {160*1024}

so window is showing only 1,52,626MB! That is 11,214MB missing, so how can recover whole 160GB to install XP

> i have no idea how can i formate Linpus Linux!
Windows cannot detected Linux partition Is that true? so how can i formate it!

Thank you

^^This is because HD manufacturers dont multiply the data by 1024. They multiply it with 1000.

So 160*1000*1000 = 160000000/1024/1024 = 152.58GB
You cannot get full 160GB.

I get only 298GB in my 320GB HD.
