MBRFIX.exe is a tool I've used often and it's never failed me. Reboot to XP after running it make sure everything's fine and then delete the Linux partition after that. If you have a USB key you can boot off of, there are also tools that can save you digging up an XP CD. MBRWizrd.exe is one that comes to mind.
