    can't install XP onto OS

    Xp is the OS, OS being Operating System, that what Xp is!, so how can there be only a OS and no xp? Unless its an old OS and u want to have XP on instead? But if he has wiped the HD meaning hes formatted then it wont have anything on it, so it would be a straight install of the operating system
