You could also have installed winxp on a different partition and then just copied the stuff over from the old partition and then removed the partition and merged it in with the main new win partition (using a piece of software like partition magic).

Did you try logging on with the administrator account? Usually it is just that specfic account that wont start up. You can trigger a logon prompt from the welcome screen by pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL a couple times.
