Hi
Windows XP Installer must have the appropriate SATA driver to see your HDD.
You must give this driver with press key F6 at beginning of your installation.

Check the BIOS settings and if you are using a SATA HDD see if you can use an IDE-emulation setting. Vista has native supprot for AHCI but XP doesnt.
