If you are installing windows XP with Windows 9x or me than the I would recommend you to use FAT32 as if you use NTFS than you wont be able to access Windows XP with NTFS partition. If you are installing Windows XP with Windows NT or Windows 2000 than you can use any partition type. But I would recommend to use NTFS.

It's highly recommended to install XP on NTFS partitions.
Primary NTFS Partition.....
Windows XP and Windows 7 both use the same file system by default: NTFS.
NTFS is the predominant file system although FAT is supported on XP.
Windows XP's "most advanced filesystem" is merely the NT Filesystem (NTFS.). XP's latest version is 5.1. NTFS deprecated and replaced FAT32 for consumer Windows versions starting with XP, although NTFS itself has been a part of NT since the very beginning, and has existed since the Windows 3.11 days. FAT32 is now basically relegated to removable media.
