Default Remove XP boot partition


Hello guys, I have a compaq presario running on windows vista and i decided to install windows xp (dual boot) using the instructions found in one of the forums here. Unfortunately, most of the components e.g. audio, video ethernet does not have windows XP driver, so i wasn't able to intall the VistaPro which means whenever i boot my laptop it goes directly to XP.

My question is, since it is evident that i cannot use XP on this machine, how will I safely remove this boot partition so that my machine will start on Vista just like it normally does?

Thanks.
