I lost my XP disc, is there any possible way that I can search for it
and burn it to disc?

What do you mean "search for it"? Either you have your installation CD
or you have to buy a new one. One way of possibly getting around this
is if you have the Product Key sticker on your computer case (you
should since you got the system from Best Buy). Take your machine to a
local professional computer repair shop - not the people at Best Buy! -
and they will be able to reinstall Windows using their own media and
your Product Key. This is legal since the Product Key is your license,
not the physical CD.

I am not saying this to hurt your feelings, but based on your various
posts in this newsgroup I really think it will be best for you to have
a professional take care of your computer.

If I understand the question, you could take someone else's
cdrom for the same version of Windows XP that was used to
install it in the present system and burn a copy of this cdrom.
Note that the Product Key (which has not been lost?)is matched
to specific versions of Windows XP...be very sure that the PK
is applicable for the burned copy.
