Install WIndows XP on Dell Optiplex 745

Hi, A friend of mine purchased a used Dell Optiplex 745 and wants to install Windows XP Professional on it to play some old retro games of theirs. Well we are having a problem where I have a Dell OEM Windows XP Professional ISO from Dell (I created an ISO when I had the disk) and uses Rufud to create a bootable USB. It boots but after it loads the files for setup it goes to a BSOD with the stop error code 7B which means Hard Disk controller.  I don't have any blank CD's to burn a CD of the install media and would like to use a Flash Drive for ease of use. How can this be done?
