Before you do anything, check whether you can get all XP drivers for your PC. Since you obviously have a very recent PC, that is not a done deal.
But in any case make an image of your current Windows7 so that you can always go back in case the XP experiment does not work. Else, I think replacing Windows7 with XP is a BIG mistake.
How do you intend to install XP - that will depend whether you get the windows.old folder.
For better help with problems, Can you post your specs.

You can not install from Windows 7 decktop, need to boot the PC from Win XP CD.
