I have a 40 GB Primary Hard Disk and recently got 160 GB SATA secondary Hard Disk,problem with the primary hard disk is,because of low space and I am learning programming so I need compilers including Visual Studio and SQL Server plus I have Linux alongside Windows,my system has slowed down considerably and is going haywire,there is only 4 GB left in my primary hard disk...I have 1 GB RAM so problem doesn't lie there,it's the hard disk.I want to know how I can uninstall Ubuntu Linux 8.04 LTS and reinstall it on the Secondary Drive using Wubi(Install within Windows)option without affecting my Windows XP that is.I also wanted to know in case the Primary HDD crashes because it has windows installed on it,does it affect the secondary HDD as someone was telling me secondary is good for backups as all the files placed in the secondary HDD remain intact even if the Primary HDD crashes and once Windows is reinstalled you can get all the data back from the Secondary memory.This is important,my system is going nuts so please do help me and tell me how to uninstall Ubuntu Linux from Primary HDD and reinstall it in the secondary HDD.

I wouldn't do it from within windows. I would boot an Ubuntu live cd and run the program "Gparted" to move and resize partitions.

Bluntly, the thing to do is back up the files you want to put on the secondary hard drive and run Wubi there from scratch. How is it installed on your first dual boot, as Wubi or as two partitions? To unistall it if it's two partitions you can find all kinds of tutorials such as this one: http://www.technixupdate.com/how-to-unin... To uninstall Wubi go to Add/Remove programs. Anyhow, use the removable media backup to restore the files you want to restore before deleting the partition.
