Looking to prepare a laptop for resale, but I had a Linux-Win8.1 dual boot set up.
So I first booted into Windows, deleted the relevant partitions (1GB Recovery, 100MB, 688GB, 8.89GB Recovery remain).
Then I booted Windows from a Windows Install Disk, went to Command prompt, and ran
bootrec.exe /fixmbr
And then restarted the computer.
Now I boot the system with Secure Boot ON, it takes me to the Grub loader (with nothing but command line).
I can type "exit" and it will move on to the Windows 8.1 install I have running.
How can I remove the boot loader? The solution I tried above still leaves it, and I'm not particularly well versed in GRUB.
Thanks.
