So, recently, I got this old computer. I put Windows XP on it, and that was fine, but last name I put Ubuntu 12.04 on it, but some error about the graphics came up, so I assumed the graphics was just too old. I was planning on removing Ubuntu 12.04 and then maybe installing an older version, or just not getting it. Well, I've never removed Ubuntu off a computer before, so I just assumed that you delete the partitions Ubuntu was on. Apparently not. Now, when I start up the computer, I get command line-like prompt that is something like 'grub>' and says 'filesystem not recognized' or something like that. How do I get it to boot on Windows XP again?

Try Boot-Repir: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair Try the "recommended" (default) button first. Advanced options explained on the website if the default settings won't work.
Good Luck!
