compelling computer problem

Here is my situation:

I have a dell dimension 8200 (i think) with an Intel Pentium 4 processor 1.80 GHz. My 40 Gig hard drive failed recently. I purchased an 80 Gig hard drive and installed it - both were Seagate hard drives. I've tried to load Windows XP with my reinstallation cd that came with the computer and get a message that windows requires an 80486 or later processor. This same computer with the smaller hard drive operated with windows xp. Any suggestions as to how to handle this problem?
