In this case, the most likely scenario is that your MBR (Master Boot Record), is still configured to boot linux, and since in can’t find linux it wont work at all.

In order to remedy this situation, insert your windows boot disk, enter the recovery console, type in the command fixmbr, and then agree to run fixmbr. After that, Install Windows
