I believe if you go into BIOS and select your CD ROM as the FIRST boot device, stick in the windows xp CD and reboot you'll be able to load up your operating system. Press any key when prompted after reboot.
 
Ok, Now how long do i let it burn in?

If you have windows loaded up, try loading your system drivers from the MB CD. You can check your temps and voltages in BIOS under hardware settings or something similar. If the system is stable your on your way. Go online and update windows xp os.
