Installation of Microsoft Windows* XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) on systems using Intel® Desktop Processors
For a successful installation of Microsoft* Windows* XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) on systems using Intel® Pentium® 4 or Intel® Celeron® D processors, Intel recommends a check of the system BIOS to ensure that it is a BIOS with Intel production support for the installed processor. Using a BIOS that does not support the matching processor may cause the system to hang on the first reboot during installation of Microsoft Windows XP SP2.
If a system hangs it could be due to a BIOS that did not have Intel production support for the installed processor. In this event, you should contact your system or motherboard manufacturer or your place of purchase to obtain a stand-alone boot procedure to install the matching BIOS for your processor so Microsoft Windows XP SP2 can resume installation.
