Please provide more information to assist you further.

• What is the exact problem you are facing while installing the OS?
• What is the source of installation? Is it with Genuine OS CD or pre-installed recovery partition/....
• If you've downloaded and created a bootable CD, were you able to install on a different system?
• What is the exact error message[with error code] that you are getting?
• If you are referring to installation of new programs, then please provide more info on the OS installed, whether you are having admin rights or not?

Once you provide the above information, we'll assist accordingly and if needed, you'll need to provide much more information.

The simplest of many possible explainations is that the user you are signed on as to XP, is a guest user only, and does not have execution rights to the install files.
