Not a problem with XP Home specifically, but rather with the supplier installer routine - I had the same issues with XP Pro. It appears that the virtual memory check in the installer interprets large values of free disk space/VM as Negative values.
Another work-around is to temporarily set the VM down to a small figure (like 256 MB) and then the autorun installer will happily proceed 'normally' Don't forget to reset the value back to your standard setting. Note that this requires a reboot after changing the value, so just running setup.exe directly is both easier and quicker, but this is another option.
