Stuck at the boot screen on a Windows 7 Netbook dual booted with xp

Hi Guys I've an hp mini 110 with windows seven starter and I want to make a dual boot 7/XP...I downloaded the 32bit version of the sp3 XP and following this guide: Dual Boot Installation with Windows 7 and XP I installed on a new partition...(I didn't put the sata drivers cause when I started the usb on the boot xp started to install without problem)..after xp finished I booted but I get this error "windows could not start because of a computer disk hardware configuration problem...."...when I only can see XP and It can't be opened...I tryed with the 7-system-recovery on the usb to make recovery and put these strings on prompt
bootrec /FixMbr
bootrec /FixBoot
bootrec /RebuildBcd
but nothing,same error!!!I thought it was a sata driver issue so I downloaded the drivers and opened on the system recovery through usb but it says they can't be installed....so should I slipstream in the xp iso before install xp??Or it's another issue/I need some other strings to fix the boot? ........Please Help ME!It's my syster's netbook,I promised I'd installed it but now I'm stuck! Thank you very much!,Sorry for the english I'm Italian!...I'll do all the presentation this forum require me after I get the solution!

1) Where did you download Win XP from?

2) How did you make the Wion XP USB Pendrive?
