Why not? Although it's sometimes true, it seldom is. If you have
problems, explain them here. Perhaps someone can help and a reinstall
won't be necessary.

Just boot from the Windows XP CD (change the BIOS boot order if
necessary to accomplish this) and follow the prompts for a clean
installation (delete the existing partition by pressing "D" when
prompted, then create a new one).

You can find detailed instructions here:
