when you start xp up go to Devices -> Install Guest Additions then u shud be able to see usb drives from within xp & it will give you mouse integration

is xp started up before you click it?
xp might also not be autostarting it, try going to my computer and seeing if theres a cd in there

Have done it whilst XP was running and still no hard drive appeared only C shows up.
Everything else works fine internet sound.
Appart from the fact that since installing XP back on the pc has been in overdrive
