I wouldn't recommend running dos on a system like that. First of all you're sure to have some speed issues, as dos wasn't designed to run on a system anywhere near as powerful as the one you have. This could probably be helped with a program like moslo, though.
You're also gonna need a diskmanager program as the hard drive you plan to use is too big for dos. You could still use it of course, but you'd only be able to use about 512(?) mB.
As far as the actual dual boot setup would be done, I'm not sure. I never made a dos/xp dual boot, so I can't help you there.
It should be possible, but I'd recommend getting an old computer (maybe a 166 GH or something like that), which shouldn't be very expensive, and running dos exclusively on that.
Oh yeah, the drivers thing. It isn't very difficult installing drivers in dos. You just write them into the config.sys file. You should be able to google a guide.
