you deleted boot records too it seems, pop in the vista disk and run fixboot, fixmbr and it should boot again.
the problem is that the linux partitions contained GRUB, the bootloader you were using. Now you don’t have a bootloader.
You can repair the bootloader with a Windows install disc. Insert the disc, reboot and select REPAIR to use the standard Windows bootloader.
If you have a windows recovery CD it should have the option for "startup repair". You can try this to fix your current windows install.
Alternatively you can boot the suse live cd and repair grub. The below tutorials highlights the main steps for restoring grub. You would need to install it to your windows partition unless you want to reinstall suse.
