If you want to remove it completely, you can use apt purge command. You can use it instead of apt remove command or after running the apt remove command. Keep in mind that the purge command won't remove any data or configuration file stored in the home directory of a user.

You can't uninstall but you can install another os over it and it will overwrite the existing old oS. To delete the OS from HDD, you can use something like dban.org

jiofi.local.html

takefive:
To remove a PPA, select the ones you want to remove and click on Remove. sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:owner/ppa Optionally, you can delete the  bitlife pc jiofi.local.html

Nice opportunity to learn how to partition a hard drive!
Make yourself a Gparted CD, start from that, partition HD for windows and linux. Linux does not need a lot and can run from partitions at the end of the disk - XP must be installed and run from first partition.

Or run gparted from a ubuntu install cd.

run both windoze and linux..

Hmmm... What options are available in boot priority? There should be 3 at least; internal HDD, USB and network. Is it UEFI or Legacy BIOS? Did you choose USB? What option did you choose? If UEFI, you have to change the UEFI boot order too, it probably is set to boot from internal HDD so change it to boot from USB/CD-ROM drive.
