Windows XP partition on Apple's Macbook Pro

I tried to use Boot Camp in order to make two partitions, one with Mac OS X and the other with Windows XP.

It turns out the XP I thought I was installing didn't have Service Pack 2 (Which is required in order to run Boot Camp on the Windows Partition). In addition my laptop is now set to start in Windows so I can't restart it in Mac OS X again and delete the Windows XP Partition (Which, frankly, I'm sick of!).

Can anyone please help me? Does anyone know how to either delete the XP Partition inside XP, Make the laptop restart in Mac OS X from XP or anything at all really?

Much obliged for any posts!

Use boot camp to delete it as well. The boot camp set up assistant can create and delete windows partitions.

Oh and to answer your question about rebooting into OS X. Boot the mac up holding down the option key and it will boot the the EFI boot selection menu instead of the OS. Norway keyboard layout may be different but I think you still have an opt key.
