You could toggle the partition type to a type that windows recognizes,
like type c using fdisk in Linux. There is also tools very well hidden
in XP which can reclaim the partitions and format them from the XP
utility. I cannot recall the name for the XP disk management utility.
I had to use it a few times, but not enough to recall the location. I
have no XP to look for it either.
I hope this gives you some clues to what you would have to do in
either linux or XP.
The windows XP disk manager is called diskmgmt.msc. It lives in
%windowsroot%/system32, but can be accessed from My Computer->Manage
Hope that this helps!
