without looking at the instructions for installing xp from is&t, perhaps try wiping the OS beforehand? alternatively, hit up the BIOS/boot menus (when you're booting up, a screen will say 'hit F10 to enter [something]') and change the startup option to read from the CD drive rather than the HD. those are the easy things i can think of; ping me by email if that's confusing.

tried in about eighty million different configurations without wiping the hard drive beforehand; Vista also doesn't let itself be wiped (you have to come at it from something else) and the restore software and drivers are in the super-secret-bonus partition, instead of a CD which would be more, you know, useful.
