Windows XP is definately not a server operating system. Those are heavily OPTIMIZED, so Microsoft knows, why they don't want such server applications to be installed on a workstation/consumer operating system.
But Microsoft offers "Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine" for free. It works on Desktop OSes, and is probably just right for what you want to do, it's power is similar to the "real" SQL Server 2000, it just has some restrictions.
