With anything electronic you are lucky to get 90 day warranties.  If you 
purchase form a reputable store (Circuit City, Best Buy etc) you can usually 
get a 3 year service contract that is not too unreasonably priced.

I am curious as to what troubleshooting steps you took to determine the XP 
install disc was bad?
