Check your cables and the MA/SL/CS jumper on the hard drive. You may also want to clear and reset the BIOS.

This has solved problems for me on GX series Dell computers.

Can I use a windows XP disk that came with my dell laptop with my HP desktop computer?

No. The disk that came with the Dell laptop does not contain all the files that a full Windows XP installation disk comes with. Instead it will contain the files needed to install Windows XP on your Dell laptop. As Windows XP installs it will detect the hardware that your computer is constructed from (including the motherboard and processor) and install files that are specifically for that hardware. Your HP computer will have different hardware to the Dell, so the installation that is suitable for the Dell will not work properly on the HP.

What is the purpose of the Dell recovery disk?

Dell computer recovery discs are designed to revert the Dell machine for which they were made back to factory specifications. Think of this disk as having the ability to go backwards in time, and reverting the Dell computer to exactly the way it was when first removed from the box. Of course, any changes made since then will be eliminated, so it's a great idea to backup the machine first!
