Can't Revert to XP from Vista 64

I installed Vista 64 with a clean boot to my C: drive. I figurerd I could
uninstall it and re-install XP the same way. When I attempt to install XP by
booting off the disk, however, it fails to recognize any of my hard drives
and therefore thinks it has no place to install to. I have unplugged all USB
thumb drives and external hard drives prior to this proceedure. BIOS sees all
of my drives just fine. Can anyone suggest what is wrong or how to fix?

I never had to do so either with the original installation of XP or the
installation of RC-1; which still boots just fine.
