Windows XP Install Help Needed

I keep getting this error message each time I try and install windows XP on pc that I friend wants me to look at. The message says:

Any help with this will be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance

 

Thanks for the replies guys, very much appreciated. I was trying to unstall a 32bit version and later found out it was a 64bit machine. I installed a 64bit version and it installed ok. Thanks

 

Thats what I thought but wasnt too sure. I downloaded the 64bit version off here and it installed first time, no errors. The pc is working fine now BUT I cannot get it to connect to the internet. Ive plugged it straight into my router and when I click on EI, it comes up with the old cannot display page message. Ive tried two different cables just in case but its still the same........errrr ....help

 

Right, here is where Im a little clueless, how can I check rthe pc for the correct drivers I need?

Forgot to add, I will also have to activate it aswell

 

Antec, AMD Athlon 64bit, does that help?

Im clutching st atraws if it is the right driver. Ive tried going through add hardware via the control panel but for some reason I cannot get it to connect vie the internet and dowload the driver this way. I used a program called Driver Genius (im sure you have heard of it). It came up with this one driver, all the others were fine. Each time the pc has crashed, Ive been doing a fresh install as this was the only way I knew to get the system working again (Im a real ametuer at this stuff). May Driver Genius wasnt the way to go BUT I do not have the original CD. I wish I did as this would save me (and my new friend, acrsn) a hell of a lot of grief. Cheers mate
