No, you cannot delete the inbuilt admin account. Reboot
in Safe Mode, then log on as "administrator".

It's simply not possible to delete WinXP's built-in Administrator
account. Did you, instead, create another user account with
administrative privileges? If so, the built-in Administrator account
will now be hidden, as the default security precaution.
