I ran XP on an early i5 for years. The two things that occur to me are
1) Is this a valid copy? No offense meant.
2) You likely have drivers that were written long before any of the hardware in your system was manufactured. I did my installations from a CD that had SP3 slipstreamed into it. "Slipstreaming" allows you to apply the updates to the installation media before you do the install.

Could either of these be your issue?
