and then try to install it. XP with SP1 is pretty flaky.

You just need to insert the XP SP1 CD and allow the required files to be copied to the HDD and then you can proceed to finish the install.

All you need do is follow the screen prompts and do as you are told to. This will include using your Original XP Install CD and then after this is finished with you can then proceed to insert the Office CD.

But to be perfectly honest you are much better upgrading to SP2. M$ where giving away these Disc's when SP2 was new so it's freely available even if you need to apply it through the Windows Update Web Site.

Only thing that you need to watch out for is that you enable Automatic Updates or the WGA will stop the system working. Currently M$ doesn't offer any support for any version of XP without SP2.
