I think your problem is not UNIX or XP, it is really BIOS settings. Usually the BIOS provides a screen to allow you to change boot order for drives and other boottime parameters. Pressing F9 during boot allows you to change BIOS settings.

Go to your BIOS manufacturers website for help.

Are you using grub to dual boot?
