Did the notebook come with XP installed on it? They should be supplied with Linux Lite.
Try installing Vista if you can't get on with Ubuntu or Linux.
The reason that XP won't run is down to drivers. There aren't any available.
Hope that helps.

How can i put windows on my acer notebook if it is missing all pititions and drivers

If you blew away the partitions, then it doesn't know what to install itself on.

When you set up Windows from the disk, it prompts you to create partitions from empty space in the setup program (its a blue screen for 2000/XP). I think its literally the first or second screen, it will have a box and a yellow highlight line across that says something to the effect of 'partitioned space' (sorry working from memory here lol). Once you set up a partition, tell Windows to install on it, you should be fine.

My Acer Aspire One hangs and brings up a blue

Blue screen with a message on it = BSOD  Find the number of the error and google for it, you will get a general idea of what is causing it. 
The easiest way of fixing that is to backup your files and reinstall Windows.

I want to install windows xp on my acer 4230

Hi shaikh_shaha

Can you get it to boot using any of the options it gives other than boot normally? If the blue screen is caused by hardware then installing xp will still present the problem. If the blue screen is an operating system crash then using the recovery disk or doing a repair install will solve the boot problem.

If you still rather install xp then you need to go into BIOS and set 1st boot device as CD. To go into BIOS you will need to press F10 or F2 (usually) as displayed on the splash screen when you power on

Does this help?
