I was really hoping to avoid wiping the drive because 1) 90% of the games I own don't work on wine (yet), 2) I really prefer XP to linux at the moment, and 3) I have a lot of irreplaceable files, games, and music on that drive. Edit: If I didn't make it clear, the windows drive appears to be completely intact. The only problem is grub blocking my passage.

When you want to get ubuntu again just install it like you did the first time.
Btw, DOS boot and MBR are the same thing.
