All you need to do is boot from your windows disk - you may need to select the drive in the bios (usually F8) then select the drive where your windows disk is. From there Windows Setup will start - then just follow the instructions.

I think you need 2 have live xp cd (which is a bootable disc with xp installed in it)
now using that cd boot and start xp and you can take backup of files,softs into other drive
now restart system
and normally install windows xp..
