The normal way to "uninstall" any operating system is to format the hard drive and install a new OS of your choice.
After backing up or copying any important personal data files to a CD or other removable storage media, simply boot from the WinXP installation CD. You'll be offered the opportunity to delete, create, and format partitions as part of the installation process. (You may need to re-arrange the order of boot devices in the PC's BIOS to boot from the CD.)
