XP installed boot files on 2nd partition

[bubbamike_01]

I got a new hard drive. I formatted and partitioned under my old
install as 3 partitions. I then took my new drive and made it master
and installed XP on the C drive, however XP professional, in it's
wisdom installed boot.ini,ntldr and NTDETECT.COM on the second
partition. I'd like to move them to the first partition which is an
FAT32 drive rather than the second partition which is a NTFS drive.
Any ideas how to do this?

Partition info
C:\ FAT32, 9.74GB, 5.87GB free
G:\ NTFS, 68.8 GB
H:\ NTFS, 70.4 GB

Boot.ini looks like this:

[boot loader]
timeout=1
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect

You will have to install it again. This time making quite sure that in
New Install, you hit ESC and select the partition yourself. Indeed if
there is nothing else you want in the G and H, I would boot the CD, take
Setup, continue with New Install, and there hit ESC and delete the
partitions and start over, making just a suitable size one for the
system at this stage, and then *once it is running* make the G and H -
at Control Panel - Admin Tools - Computer Management, select Disk
Management and look lower right for the graphic of the drive. R-click
in Unallocated space and create partition.
