I had a similar problem a couple of years ago!
I got a tip for you....
if you have any older versions of windows such 98se or 2000/me or even NT
install the OS as normal using boot disk/CD then whens it installed pop in the XP disk and it will ask you if you want to upgrade, select yes and if your comp has the minimum hardware xp needs it should install.
Note* it will take over an hour for the whole process..
