I HAVE USB PORT TO HAVE A PENDRIVE.....
Firstly, if your project work is urgent, you may want to look at alternative means of getting it done that don't depend upon installing XP over Fedora.
Secondly, during the install of XP, you'll need to specify that you want to repartition the disk. This should destroy any EXT4 filesystem currently on there, permitting the installer to recreate a new partition with FAT32/NTFS, suitable for XP.
Lastly, if you just want to run XP on your notebook short-term - consider virtualising it, i.e. run it in a virtual machine under Fedora. However, this may take some time to master and rushing it with project deadlines approaching may not be the best approach.
I think one of the issues here is the lack of CD/DVD drive. I really don't know and have no experience with installing Windows from media other than CD/DVD, so I'm not going to be much help here.
Nuking the partitions also implies you'd want to boot from some other source, and again, I don't have much experience with booting systems via USB.
