To install XP_You need to slipstream your Sata drivers ( ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller) with nLite.

Here is the guide how to do it and here are Sata drivers . Just extract with the free 7Zip or with winrar.

 

Be sure also that you are using at least WinXP SP2 version. If you don't have SP2 version here here is full download of the service pack and here is the guide how to slipstream this file with XP.

 nLite can even burn your new XP CD with slipstreams.
