The ones on their standard download page are not compatible with Xen kernels according to the release notes. The ones to be used for Xen kernels on x64 is this one: http://www.3ware.com/KB/article.aspx?id=15257
That only has a zip file, not an image file.

http://www.3ware.com/KB/article.aspx?id=15257 is the files that go on a driver disk. I just dl'd it and opened it. I know there is a way to use a driver disk from other media, but I can't find it, and I'm sure someone on list will remember how.
Yes these are the files I was using. It wouldn't let me install with these files on a usb drive or a cdrom, but it worked fine when I put them on a floppy. I then did an upgrade install of CentOS, and was able to boot into the system.
The only issue now seems to be that I still can't boot the xen kernel with it. I tried manually copying the 3w-9xxx.ko from /lib/modules/2.6.18-53.el5/updates to /lib/modules/2.6.18-53.1.21.el5xen/updates, but that didn't seem to help.
Do I need to mkinitrd or something?
