When you boot from the WinXP CD you should have the option to delete any existing partitions and reformat the hard drive.  That should correct the problem for you.  I know others have posted threads about the best way to turn a Vista system into an XP system, so you might want to check those as well for more tips on gettin XP installed now that Vista is (at least partially) on there.
