1. Please do not post in ALL CAPS. Thank you.

2. If HP does not have XP drivers available, you are out of luck unless you can determine the manufacturer of the video adapter and sound chip and download drivers from them.

3. You need DVD burning software to make it a DVD burner. XP only has builtin CD burning software.

EDIT: The audio is a Realtek ALC888 and the graphics are nForce 430 with integrated graphics. Here are the audio drivers for XP:

ftp://152.104.238.19/pc/audio/WDM_R170.exe

Video is a bit more obscure. Read the following:

Pay particular attention to the post made by bdUser.

Go here http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp. In the first box choose Graphics driver>Gforce 6 series>Vista 32bit or WinXP 32bit.. One driver will do all.
