Does it only hang when you try to install WindowsXP? Or does this happen with every type of installation.

It could be an overheating problem or a capacitor problem.

It could be that your copy of XP is bad. I would definitely try to install another OS and see if it works.

Could be RAM, unless another OS installs cleanly - I've had issues with that in the past.
