The disk may be damaged or the computer has a problem with installing Windows XP. Either way try creating a new partition and try again. If your booting it from DOS the process is a bit harder

If you got past the initial setup and choosing what partition to install windows and install file and then it ask you to restart. When you restart make sure you hit no buttons other wise you restarting the setup. You can even take the cd out when it restarting. If it working correctly this should get you to the next step in the installation.
