I figured this was a joke. Who would know enough to dual install two linux distro's and ask the most simple of xp questions. Normally the other way around.
Boot to xp.
Delete any partitions you don't want (linux) and then normal install. You don't need to fix mbr. MS has a way of doing that for you even if you don't want it.
"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10
