I know this is probably a silly question to ask but ,have you tried changing the boot sequence to allow your cd to boot first in the bios .then try to install from your xp cd.
If I recall correctly , it may as simple as hitting F8 at boot up and selecting “cd as the first boot device” from the boot menu and it will more than likely return to boot from hard drive at the next boot up.
Failing that you should get someone to make you a windows boot floppy to install cd drivers first then try your CD install of xp .
I hope this helps.
