    yes, offcourse you can install Windows XP on your system. Do you have XP Installation CD with you ? If yes, put it in the DVD Drive and restart system. Select boot from CD and run the setup. Format the C drive and install the new OS. Thats it.

    Turn on the laptop and press "F2" to enter the BIOS utility. Go to the "Advanced" tab and set the CD/DVD drive as your primary boot device. Save and reboot.

    2
    Insert the Windows XP installation disk and wait for the laptop to boot. At the prompt, press any key to initialize the Windows XP Setup.

    3
    Watch the lower status bar indicating the progress of the installation. When prompted, press "F6" to install a third-party RAID or SCSI driver. Press "F6" and follow the on-screen instructions to load the drivers from your floppy drive. After loading the drivers, the setup should continue.

    4
    Read the license agreement and, if you agree with it, press "F8" to continue the installation. Select a partition where Windows XP will be installed and press "Enter" to continue.

    5
    Wait for Windows Setup to format your drive and copy the required files.

    6
    Enter your user name, password, Windows XP CD key and any other information you are prompted to enter during setup, and wait for the installation to complete.
