Reverse what you did. And make the partition smaller than usual. But install XP then Linux for Dual -booting.

windows XP overwrites the MBR and erases any bootloader information saved there. I would have installed XP first, then Fedora next on a different partition. Fedora installation process recognizes the installed windows and gives you an option to set up a boot loader either LILO or GRUB. You can also choose which OS should boot by default.
