in the bios select d20 that the recovery partion if it still there. if it not contact the laptop vendor for a small fee they may have image cd or usb stick. or be able to point you to downloading iso image for the laptop.
for windows xp and newer hardware you have to hit f6 costum driver install and install the intel or amd chipset and sata drivers.
Please don't bump after 40mins, it's really rude and will only annoy people.

What is in the 'main' page on the bios screen.

It's quite likely that this will not solve the problem, it's a certainty that windows XP has no idea what that mobo is, what it looks like or how it works, sata was only just coming on the scene when XP was around. You may need to slipstream many drivers (which won't be available for XP in all likelihood) into your Xp iso.

If your mobo doesn't have those options then it just doesn't.
