Try enabling passthrough in the virtual machine configuration and see if at least the windows inside can see the disk.

I guess only two words are enough to describe your problem: bad disk.
You say it yourself, the real XP cannot read the disk too, the problem is not the OS you try to use, the problem is a broken disk.
