Hi,

Here are your system specs:

In order to install XP on this you may have to install the Sata Driver first.
The best way to do this is to slipstream the Sata driver to a custom XP CD.
You will need:

XP SP2 (do not install SP3 yet)
Sata driver:

A blank CD-R
A working computer with CD burning capabilities.

The program I use and guide is here to Slipstream XP SP2 and the Sata driver:

Once XP is installed, please install these drivers in the following order.
Please reboot after each install of the driver
