It depends actually.
Some i5 systems were based on Sandy Bridge and that is supported "for sure" on XP.
Some i5 systems were based on Ivey Bridge and "most" were supported by Intel, whether the manufacturers made support available was less certain. But the Intel drivers would work.
XP was phenomenally flexible and had many work arounds. Bolt-on SATA and mSATA, USB 3.0 support available.. is available.. and that's just nuts.
I recently upgraded my Win7 HP Folio13 to XP, it has an i5 with a USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 port with mSATA card. Its pretty nice. HP never released XP support for that.. but Snappy Driver to the rescue.

I will be very interested to hear if that really has a dead Sound input.
Like I said these things 'are like' from Krypton.
I have seen "one" D.O.A. instance of this.. but it was the whole thing.. probably someone plugged a 12 volt power supply into the 6 volt port.. that happens "far far" too often with other capture boxes.. like the Pinnacle series.
Mostly people overlooked the ATI standalone capture box.. which brought it all the way into the 2010's.. otherwise they would have probably been abused to death by now.
the Saga.. continues.. good luck.
