Uninstalling/ Formatting XP from Win 7?

Hi, I installed Win XP pro using VMware player on my Win7 (Home Premium) laptop some time ago. I would now like to uninstall it but can't figure out how. Obviously uninstalling the VMware Player will still leave the XP.

Any assistance gratefully received :)

    Start VMWare, right-click the virtual machine and select "Delete VM from Disk".

    It's on page 71 of the User Guide, under "Delete a Virtual Machine".
