Using Vista, Booting XP

I am currently using Windows Vista Home Premium, which came with my HP Pavilion a1730n Desktop. I recently found an Microsoft XP Home SP2 disc, that came with an older laptop. Would I be able to boot my system with XP using that disc? Would I have any problem with my drivers?

Thanks...

-Dan
