Without damagign the other? If so, how?

When I went to instal windows xp, for some reason it wouldn't let me delete the old parition for some reason so I just installed it to it. Seeing as the 5 year old laptop taht I did this on has only a 5 gig hard drive I kinda want the space back.
 
Well.......I wou;d not reccomend it at ALL. It would be bad...REALLY bad. Reformat that partition?
 
well I don't plan on using the laptop for anything other than roms, dvd playing, and word processing. Maybe half life. I choose to install xp on it because the graphics drivers were ****ed up in 2000 and would only display 16 colors. Whereas in xp they arn't messed up and displays in 16 million colors.
 
However I don't really want to have to activate xp over the phone, so that means I have to wait 6 months to reformat?

You can activate whenever you want, assuming you're doing it legally.
 
It only takes 5 minutes? I assumed it would take longer for some reason. I also don't want to reformat as I'm lazy.
