Try reinstalling the WinXP bootloader via the WinXP setup disk. Once booted from the CD goto repair and type in fixmbr or fixboot. I can't be sure these commands are correct so type in help to display a list of commands you can enter. WinXP happily overwrites GRUB's bootloader, it doesn't even consider another boot loader than its own to exsit on any hard drive.

Either just ignore the menu, or boot to the XP CD and then run the recovery console. Type "FIXMBR" and that should do it.
