    Recovery discs should be available from Dell, and most of their XP systems shipped with XP installation CDs.

    I suggest that you obtain or borrow a copy of the XP Home with SP3 OEM edition CD, with which you can repair the XP installation.  A CD containing SP2 or earlier will not work.

    You will need to do a FULL reinstall deleting all partitions and creating anew one to load on. There is no going back form attempting a Windows 8 install. you iwll need the exact copy of Xp that was loaded on your machine or your serioa;l number will not work to activate it.
