Very Computer

We used to have a 15 gig partition under Windows...I partitioned about half to
Linux and half to Windows when I used fips.  Things went fine, then I decided
to get rid of Linux and put it on another computer instead.  Well, someone
fdisked the partition and did somethning else that really screwed it up.  (I
maybe a newbie but I wouldnt do anything that dumb) so it is still partitioned
but linux is gone, lilo starts at boot cuz mbr wasnt fdisked...but I cant
delete the Linux partition I have tried several partitioning programs.  When I
tried Partition Magic when it loaded it said "Error #48: Sector not found" and
exited.  
??
When a separate program of Partition Magic, called PTEDIT, it shows the
partition info as follows:
Drive 1 (16221mb)
                       Starting                               Ending
   Type   Boot        Cyl.     Head    Sector      Cyl.      Head   Sector
1   0C     80             0         1         1            999        254      
63
2   05      00         1000       0         1           1023       254       63

---Continued After Above---

   Sectors Before          Sectors
1          63                   16064937
2     16065000             17157420

Is there any way I can edit those values to fix it without screwing up Windows?
 Thanks.

Using the installation boot disk and CD, boot the system and follow
through the install up to the partitioning section. Delete all linux
partitions and then choose the "Back" button and save the changes when
asked. Then reboot the system with a windows boot disk and do a:

fdisk /MBR

You will have to format the disk/partition back to the DOS format.

I already tried that with Redhat installer and there was an error
message...something about no drive to partition (sounds bad)

Sounds bad enough that you would think to take note of it, eh?

Unsupported IDE controller, probably. Don't use dma100 at install. Plug
your disk in somewhere standard.
