I would go into the bios change it to the defaults or safe mode settings. also make sure the acpi is disabled in the bios this had me for a loop for hours. you can also take out all the cards leaving only the video, harddrive, cdrom in and see if xp will install if it does put each card in 1 by 1 and see if that helps...do you have any system specs for us might help like cpu, mobo, etc. also how many sticks of ram could be a ram issue might want to try memtest to test the sticks. and lastly what kinda temps are you looking at on idle.
