    I believe you can accomplish this task by keeping grub, I've done it before I discovered Wubi by following the tutorial here.

    Booting XP from CD has nothing to do with Grub, your BIOS bootloader will do that.

    Yeah i know but apparently grub stops windows xp from booting when you want to install it, thanks david btw.

    edit: still no luck trying to get xp to boot up the installation process i might try warez and see if they've got a copy and try that.
