What error message are you getting.

Windows XP recognizes the installer for an application not the application
installer recognizing Windows XP.

If you have an OEM installed version of Office 97, it may be tied to the
original computer.

If you have a retail upgrade version of Office 97, the installer may be
looking for a qualified product.

More information would help.
