First of all, I would use GRUB instead of lilo. You can easily find a tutorial on linux.org or a quick google search. You should set up your partitions just as you have, but will only be able to boot one at a time. The only way you could load both OSes at once would be to use some kind of emulator like WINE. However, if you just want to access files, you can boot up your linux system and then access the files on the windows partition. (I believe FC2 has NTFS support, if not you can download it.)
You may just want to start over and install winxp first (allocating the partition size you want and letting the rest of the hdd be free), then install linux. Fedora should use GRUB and allow you to it up at the install. Once you restart you should be able to pick between windows and linux from the grub interface. Hope this helps, Robert |

Dual booting does not imply booting both simultaneously. It just means the options of selecting either or.
If running both systems at the same time were possible. Then there would not be a need for applications such as Wine, Bochs, Plex86, Vmware, VPC. Install GNU/Linux, then install something like Bochs or obtain a trial of VMware, then setup the virtual machine to load Windows. Now, you can boot GNU/Linux and run the virtual machine which will load MS Windows. Now, you will have both operating systems running at the same time. |

Let me bring another option to your attention. See Unix environments for MS Windows.
