    Hey guys. I read tons of threads here and I would like to say thanks for all the info.

    I just installed windows 7 (64 bit =D) and upon realizing that I didn't have enough space on the (vista 32) partition, I decided to install to my second hard drive partition. Now I have a dual boot system, and I am wondering how I can get rid of the useless vista!

    I guess I'll tell you what I'm thinking now..from what I've read--

    I need to boot W7, "Run: e:\boot\bootsect.exe /nt52 ALL /force"
    Reboot and format the other drive (possible without a vista disk?)
    And delete a few files.

    I hope this is easier than it sounds.. but I would really like to hear what you guys think. Thanks!
