Unable to install mac os x

Hallo!I have been trying to install Mac OS X in my laptop.I also have Windows XP installed in an NTFS partition and two FAT32 partitions for my data storage.

I formatted one of my FAT32 partitions and tried to install Mac OS X in this partition.The installation went smoothly until I found the error below
The installer could not install some files in "/Volumes/Untitled".Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.

I researched in the internet for a solution to this and I found out that Mac OS X is installed in a HFS + journaled partition.I reformatted my partition to HFS+ and tried to re-install the Mac OS X.During installation,the installation setup could only detect my NTFS and FAT32 partitions.The HFS partitions was not in the selection list.

How can I solve this?Thanks.

The board rules on this site do not allow help with installing OS X on non-Apple hardware, as that is not a licensed use for OS X.
If you do have a Mac, then I apologize for the assumption that I made.
Please tell us which Mac model you have, and the version number for OS X, which would be on the label of the installer disk. Also, please describe the color of the disk that you have.
