S.Vikash Koushik proposed the following answer:
Hi

         You don't have to remove Ubuntu.I have a solution that will
help you to show the the thing "that asks you with which operating
system you want to work with" which is known as GRUB.

As you said you have two hard disk.One of them has Ubuntu and the other
has XP.Now what must have happened is that in the BIOS the primary
booting device must have been set to the hard disk that contains XP. Now
just change it to the hard disk that contains UBUNTU.Save the settings
and reboot.Now you will be able to see GRUB that will ask you which
operating system you want to use.

Since Windows XP will not recognise the UBUNTU partition, you will not
be able to see the files on that partition.You can install a software
called as explore2fs that will read the UBUNTU partition.

Good Luck!
