Yes you will have to reformat your harddrive and reload xp on it. sometimes you can get lucky and not have to but it is reccemmened that you do so all the drivers for everything is correct.
 
the quick answer to that would be yes, the instant you put it into a computer that has different hardware it will show you the blue screen of death, and the only way to get passed this is to repair the hard drive,

but reformatting is the easyest option
