The XP CD is bootable. Just insert the cd into your cd-rom and reboot your
machine (make sure your cd-rom is set as first boot option in the bios
first). During setup you will have the option to delete a partition and
create a partition. Just delete the NT partition and create a new one for xp
to install on.
