Aspire One D250 dual boot Windows XP/ Ubuntu 11.04.

I want to install Mint4Win inside windows and remove my Ubuntu installation. The Acer One has it's own recovery program and I do not know how to access the Windows command for fixmbr followed by a deletion of Ubuntu partitions with gparted.

My concern is if I boot with gparted and delete my Ubuntu partitions and reboot I will still see options for an Ubuntu start or windows start even though I no longer would have Ubuntu installed.

With Mint installed, on boot an option appears and asks if you wish to boot into Mint or Windows. My question is if I delete the ubuntu partitons with gparted will the installation of Mint overwrite the grub file so I am not looking at three choices of operating systems?
