It should be on the windows xp pro sp3 cd, anyway, that is what you write. What cd are you using to install from? Maybe it's damaged or you need a new cd drive?
The Windows XP install CD doesn't need other CD's if doing a clean install on an empty disk from a good disk on a good drive. So something is wrong with you.
