It sounds that you have more than the usual FC2 - XP clash.
However it would be worth checking out the problem of how when
installing GRUB on the MBR FC" writes a cylinder head sector
setup that Window can't handle.
If this was your only problem then everything would work but
XP. However it might be contributing to your problem and the
workaround - giving the right CHS value at the beginning
of the installation is very simple
eg: linux hda=14593,255,63
This is clearly not your most important problem
but it may be contributing to it.
