You should just be able to upgrade as with prior versios of Windows 
. Make sure you DO NOT delete the partion this is the same thing as a re-format

Backup your files first!
Just in case.
Just in case.
it depends which pack u bought. If u purchase a UPGRADATION pack (Which will be cheap comparing to full version, you can upgard to media centre from current xp. Follow the below steps to findout wheather u can upgrade from xp or not
1. switchon your system and login to your xp account
2. insert the Media centre 2005 CD
3. If Autoplay is on it will begin installation automatically (otherwise u can manually begin setup file from the CD drive)
4. if u can able to proceed without getting error msg. something like "You have already having OS" then u can upgrade easly.
Note: Please note eventhough u bought upgradation pack media centre will give u option for FRESH INSTALLATTION which will erase u'r existing files so select "UPGRADE"
