Solution 1

The Hardware and Software Requirements for Installing SQL Server 2005[^] page specifically says "Enterprise Edition1" will not install under any version of Windows XP - 32 or 64 bit. It's about 1/3 of the way down, search for "Operating System Requirements" and you get two tables which list compatibility.
