Windows XP installation question

I am running Windows 98. I recently bought a disk at a garage sale that is a
factory disk, purple in color, and it says "operating system, reinstallation
CD Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Including Service Pack 1".

Below that it says "Only use this CD to reinstall the operating system on a
Dell computer. This CD is not for reinstallation of programs or drivers. For
distribution only with a new Dell computer".

I would like to know if this CD will install Windows XP on my computer,
which is not a Dell computer. Thank you.
