Just as there is no way to directly upgrade from XP to Windows 7 there is no direct downgrade option
You will just have to wipe windows 7 off the system and re-install XP from the original disk

How to restore a Windows 7-based computer to a previous Windows installation by using the Windows.old folder
What problems are you having with Win7 64 bit? Maybe you would like 32 bit better (I do).

No XP isn't nearly as fast as Win7. It is the best OS yet.
For someone who has used Win7 for a year now, going back to XP now feels like getting into a 1960's car.
You just have some issues that need to be worked out, so we can help you here if you want. Otherwise, your XP installer should have ability to format if you boot from it.
Yes, you will
