you can only install express or developer on xp.

The others, web, workgroup, standard and enterprise need to run on a server

Whats the error message ?
Possibly you are talking about Sql Server Management Studio, which is found missing, some times during installation.

Mr Purushottam,
first try to read the Error which you are getting. then you can resolve it.
in your case, you need to download the latest installer for windows XP, then you can install sql server 2005 on your machine. download installer, then install it, restart the machine, You will be all set.
