Need to know your HDD make and size to advise how to prepare it as very large HDD's have various requirements for formating depending on their size and the intended OS.
Also need a legal XP home or pro CD with a valid product key.
You need to know how to get into your BIOS (or CMOS setup) at startup in case booting from CD is not enabled.
