Is there any possibility to use my hardware configuration for my XP virtual box, so that i can use my OEM xp CD?
NO
This is what you get from OEM rubbish - sorry. There is no freedom is the M$ world.

With one exception, every manufacturer’s restore disk I’ve tried has ONLY
the drivers - preinstalled - for the particular hardware they supply plus
any optional stuff they sell. Probably part of the OEM agreement with MS but
most also seem to check for equipment id as well and won’t even get as far
as you did. In your case, if you can borrow a full install disk, you can
likely do a system repair to pull in needed drivers and get it going but in
that case it’s just as easy to install from scratch. The only time I’ve
resorted to the system restore trick was for a laptop with only SATA disks
and the full XP disc didn’t have SATA drivers on it (a common problem with
recent hardware).
