Vista - change dual boot to single boot

So after playing around with Vista's unsucessfull uninstall I found out my
windows Xp installation was still intact! So Vista is the primary OS and
boots with a screen that pops up for a millisecond. Then Vista says the
installation was unsuccessfull and restarts.

So I can switch to my windows XP and run it as it was before, by qucikly
selecting the OS on that screen that popped up for a brief second.

My question is how can I uninstall Vista without removing XP and all my data?

If that is too tough or not possible then how can I make XP be the primary
OS on my system?

type in Run ...msconfig

got to the boot ini tab & select your default OS
