How can i load windows XP pro?

Ok. I have a XP pro disk. I believe its 32 bit. And, When I try to load it. I get a window that says the version you are trying to load is older than the version currenly in drive. So. what I have read its imposible to get this disk to load. Is that tru? Also the disk will not boot at start up, Although My ME disk will. So not a bootable disk. Ive also downloaded the 6 floppys And when i load them i get error meesage 7(something wont load). Any ideas. or am i forced to but a OS?? thanx

Update:

yes i do have SP 2 in PC and the disc as far as I know has no service packs. Can I delete SP1 and 2? and try? Or will that totally mess it up? And like i said, disc will not boot at start up
