First off do you have a XP disc that has not been used on another PC?

Just need a XP disc, then take it in the DVD-ROM before you reboot

I dont think the installation depends DOS, if you confirm there is no problem in CMOS(the order option), I suggest you to try this cd in your old computer

the windows installation started but then in the middle of the installation a blue screen appear with a msg says: " (a problem have been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage. If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen. restart your computer. If this screen appear again follow these steps:
check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controller. Check yor hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated. Run CHKDSK/F to check for hard drive corruption,and the restart your computer)"
