Woprzi;
Try a Clean Installation on a compatible computer:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/howtobuy/upgrading/default.asp

Disconnect all peripherals (camera, printer, scanner, etc)
Go to BIOS and set CDROM as boot device before hard drive.
Insert Windows XP CD and reboot.
At "Press any key to boot to CDROM" quickly press a key and follow the
prompts for a Clean installation:
http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxp_sg_clean.asp
Delete all partitions in step 5 if you desire to erase all data on the
hard drive.
Partitioning and formatting will be done automatically.
All data will be destroyed, back-up important data first.

After you are finished, you will need to load the appropriate drivers.

If your computer was shipped with Windows XP, these procedures may or
may not apply.
Check your manual or contact the computer manufacturer for more
details.

XP is the best OEM version of Windows to date, but some people are
careless in checking their hardware compatibility before upgrading and a
lot of vendors have been very slow to release updated drivers for better
XP compatibility. Most win2K drivers work well in XP.
