    I decided to go with XP Professional for my new P8Z77 mobo build.
    8gb 1333 ram, ssd, g550. May someone please tell me how to do this. Thank you.

    If you put xp 32 bit you are limited to less then 4 gigs of ram, not to mention hobbling that machine with an older os. Your best option is a 64 bit version of windows 7, as you will have a much better time finding drivers for your new hardware.

    Not quite clear what you are asking: how to install Windows XP?

    It should be pretty much automatic; you insert the CD-ROM or DVD, then it will create & format a partition, then go ahead and install Windows on it.

    P.S. is that Windows disk already installed on another machine? If so, you won't be able to activate it on the new machine.
