If you don't format your drives as NTFS you should have no problem. Just format XP drive if you realise you don't want it then reinstall ME. If your doing an upgrade (not a clean install) there is an option in Add/Remove programs to revert back to your old OS.
BTW don't judge XP if you do a basic upgrade from ME (not a clean install). ME leaves a bad smell behind which causes XP not to work as well as it would under a clean insall.
