trouble in dual booting vista with xp

[drsharmaprashant]

Hi everyone
I just bought HP Pavillion dv6700t Laptop from with configuration as below:-
Windows Vista 64 bit with SP1
Intel core 2 duo T8100 (2.1Gh) Processor
250 GB FUJITSU MHY2250BG Hard disk
Phoenix mother board (965)
4 GB RAM
I want to dual boot with Windows XP also but whenever I try to install from original Windows XP CD it says “No hard disk detected make sure that the hard disk is properly installed and powered” although the vista is running without any problems.
Can someone help me urgently?
Thanks
