    presuming your windows and installed to a parttion and not wubi all you need to do is, delete the partition, through (7/vista guide) > start>type admin> admin tool>comp management>disc management right click and delete your linux partitons..

    then you want to restore windows mbr, to make windows boot
    download EasyBCD here run it... go to bootloader setup > select install win 7/vista or xp bootloader to mbr > write mbr

    you should boot into normal windows now

    if you installed via the wubi install, just go to add/remove programs in control panel and uninstall
