I also use that hardwareconfig (AM2 X2 3800+, 2GB ram) for running wixp 
in the two modes.

Debian unstable from middle of March, apart from having to install windows
xp as 'standart pc' so that the xen hvm-machine behaves as it should, it
works in both modes reasonably well.
If one can live with having the installation not cleanly rebooting when
started under xen it could even be installed with acpi.
