Verify the system requirements:

Your computer must meet the following hardware requirements:
• Processor
o Minimum 233 megahertz (MHz) or higher processor clock speed required, 300 MHz recommended
o Intel Pentium and Celeron family, AMD K6, Athlon, Duron family, or compatible processor recommended

Note Windows XP Professional supports both single-CPU and dual-CPU computers, but Windows XP Home Edition only supports single-CPU computers.
• 128 megabytes (MB) of RAM or higher recommended (64 MB minimum supported, may limit performance and some features)
• 1.5 gigabytes (GB) of available hard disk space
• Super VGA (800 x 600) or higher resolution video adapter and monitor
• CD-ROM or DVD drive
• Keyboard and Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device

Once done, you will have to procure Windows XP from Microsoft (though its an EOL product, you can try). Once you have the CD, insert it in the optical drive and follow the onscreen prompt.
