I am a newbie also but I don't think you can do what you want. You will have to go through a reboot with some kind of boot manager to switch from linux to windows though I don't know why you would want to go to windows at all.I had some issues with Fedora Core 2 and WinXP - nice to search redhat bugzilla for that cos that have now clue why that happens (NTFS partition is modified and WinXP can't boot)

Just be careful while instaling Mandrak 10 or Fedora Core 2. It killed my XP twice and I had really serious problems to get my data from NTFS partition back.
Is there some way of re-starting from Linux to MS Windows (dualPaul, not sure I understand your question, but how about setting
computer)? I am aware that I can achieve that with "end of
session" plus reboot, but is there a more direct way?
up a boot loader like grub and just selecting whichever OS you
choose at boot time?
Thanks.
Guy: what I am wanting is to be able of re-starting onto MS Windows from Mandrake WITHOUT making MS Windows the default (at the boot time) operating system and WITHOUT having to select manually MS Windows at the boot time.
RAT: Thanks for your alert. I have Windows2000 and Mandrake 10 running together in the same computer with no problem at all, since long ago.

Then there's Crossover or Wine

Big or small, a challenge requires the same commitment to resolve.
