She will have to use the Windows version of fdisk to create the
new Windows partition. I may be wrong but she will probably
have to use linux cfdisk or fdisk to delete the current
partition(s). The reason I say that is I remember the Windows
fdisk not recognizing a file system once. I just can't remember
if it was linux or one of the BSDs:)
At any rate since linux is currently installed it won't take
much to just delete the partition(s) and then boot with a
Windows start disk or a proprietary installation disk and create
a new Windows partition.
