Well from what you say I guess you want either to remove kubuntu or just install XP. Well just boot from your kubuntu live disc and partition the drive.
From another computer, make a nuke cd disk from

Boot from it and let it clear your boot area and drive, then you should be able to install ok.



If you can get the Windows cd to boot, have it delete the partition, then format.
run your kubuntu live cd, click on install, on the partition dialog box delete and then create your partition and format it as ntfs or fat32....
