There's only one solution buddy.Just pop in the Win XP Bootable Installation CD and select 'Repair existing installation' ( R ) in the first screen that appears .

Anyway buddy lemme tell ya that ya don't have the required hardware to run WinXP properly.So stick to 98 / 2000.

btw 800 mhz & 256 MB RAM is quite enough to run XP
