Have you tried selecting the Mac OS X volume in System Preferences > Startup Disk?

Boot Camp installs a Startup Disk Control Panel in XP.

 

[bluekatt]

not called a control panel then
more likley to be in start > system preferences and xp tends to be rather vole in some regards

 

[carlinsky]

the bootcamp in the control panel was the answer. It gives you the option of which operating system to boot in. thanks.

In WinXP it is Start > Control Panel > Startup Disk.

Glad it worked for you.
