in the Caldera knowledge base there is a warning about the e-Desktop 
kernel
not supporting all the Pentium 4 features.  Also the XP NTFS 
partition(s) are probably
causing problems for the installer.  The modern video card is also going 
to cause problems.
He might want to try a text  install then upgrade the kernel and the X 
server.

Best bet is to get a more recent distro.
