1. Is your laptop or desktop x64 bit. if yes enable intel virtualisation technology in bios.
2. If no then are the OS being installed 32 bit. If no try installing the 32bit version of the OS giving issue.
i hope they are not any vendor specific images like the OEM's.

I guess you have a hardware using SATA hard disk, if so win XP cannot be installed since the XP doesn't support SATA drivers.
Please sure the dmp file and log generated from vmware as shwon on the error message to make sure this was the problem, then I will send a link to know how to create a winXP setup CD having SATA drivers.
Best Regards.
