I use Symantec’s Norton Partition Magic to carve up the disk, usually into 3 partitions (NTFS for windows, FAT32 for moving files between windows and linux, and a linux partition).

You’ll need to copy the linux bootloader into the Master Boot Record and then set it up so you can choose which OS to boot.

When install the system,  please format the disk  and leave the free space to the linux.

Intall the xp firstly,  then install the centos on the free space.

Use the grub to load these two system.
