Burn a copy of the appropriate Ubuntu Live CD, and try popping that in while XP is up. The live CD can do WUBI installs without needing prolonged network access. If you are using firmware/BIOS RAID in XP that could contribute some issues; tell us how many disks there are and what their OS install history is, and we can offer more advice.
