Reinstall it on your C: drive. Then, make sure you boot into C: drive. You will know when it first load up, since it doesnt have device drivers installed.
Then, browse to D: drive and delete any Windows installation files.
Then, use msconfig to delete the d: windows xp from boot up menu. Do a check boot path in msconfig and it will automatically fix it for you.

Consider doing nothing.
If you must remove stuff then do a full backup or other means to secure your data.
Then determine how you wish to repair. Are there programs that you need or can it be a clean install.
I read it wrong and answer it wrong too. So get off my case you goober.
