By mistake i formatted the drive in which Ubuntu 14 was installed by using GParted Live CD. Now i want to install Windows to it, but nothing is booting up. I tried DVD and USB. All my pc showing up is GNU Grub. I don't know what to do?? Please help. Thanks

you can install Using GParted from UNetbootin-PartedMagic Another approach to resizing partitions, which does not require a CD, is to load PartedMagic from Windows via the UNetbootin PartedMagic Loader:
Download and install the Windows (.exe) file, then reboot.
Select the UNetbootin-partedmagic entry after rebooting, and wait as PartedMagic boots up.
Start the partition manager by clicking the GParted icon on the the panel.
Select your disk (probably /dev/sda) via the drop-down menu on the top-right corner of the interface.
Right-click the NTFS partition to be resized (probably /dev/sda1), and select the "resize" option.
Drag the slider to specify the new size the NTFS partition should be resized to, then press OK.
Press the "Apply" button to resize the disk, then reboot once done.
Upon the next Windows boot, click OK when prompted to remove UNetbootin-partedmagic to remove its boot menu entry.

This question is not about Ubuntu, but however!
First insert windows disk and boot it, then go to fix section and fix the windows startup
