XP Home won’t install

Brand new WD800 HDD, all new box. XP Home starts to install, goes to a white screen 5 minutes into loading “set-up”….. and stays there. If I open the CD Drive, it’ll start over. The BIOS is clean. It’s not even getting far enough to be a video driver….

Recommendations please… There never has been an O/S on this HD….. what now?
