pirating Windows XP

I am trying to pirate windows xp. I've downloaded like 5 diffrent versions, both home and pro, but I can't get any of them to install. They all go on about missing or corrupt files or don't boot at all. I know the computer works because I can get Damn Small Linux to boot.

Is there a certain way I have to burn the ISOs?
