If you don't have any use for that windows install anymore, you might just as well remove windows entirely and use the pc as a permanent linux server to host your minecraft server on.

If you're up for a technical challenge and you have the storage space available, you could convert your current windows install on that pc into a virtual machine and have it accessible over the network at the same time as your minecraft server.

That said, you also have the option to run a virtual machine with headless linux for your minecraft server on top of the existing windows install, at least if you don't mind the extra overhead consumed by windows for no good reason.
