Installing Fedora shouldn't touch anything in Windows.

Depends on your disk/partition configuration, but the most usual 
should be:

title WinXP
        rootnoverify (hd0,0)
        chainloader +1

This works if Windows is on the first partition of the first hard 
drive (in BIOS boot order).

Use your favorite text editor (emacs, gedit, kedit, nano, ...) as 
root to edit /boot/grub/grub.conf
