HP 2133 Laptop

Hi

A friend purchased this laptop brand new but it came preloade with Linux which he can't get on with, asked if i would wipe off and load XP home which he purchased separately, deleted the partitions and on trying to load windows via an new external DVD drive I get to load the setup files but then on first reboot get a blue screen with an ACPI error. Looked in BIOS but nothing in there to enable /disable, any ideas?
