Java 8 fails to install in windows xp

Hi there,
I know there is no working assurance of Java 8 in windows xp. But still it works in most of the windows xp PC's after clicking "OK" to the popup "Java 8 requires new version of windows". I have got a new error that Java 8 is not installing itself in my windows xp PC. The message "Java 8 requires new version of windows" pops up and then whatever I do installation fails. I know the working with java 8 in windows xp is risky, but still how to overcome the problem without upgrading windows ?
Thanks in advance.

You already said it best yourself
there is no working assurance of Java 8 in windows xp.
There is NO RELEASE for xp.
Your question is equivalent to asking how to make a dinner knife work like a spoon without having to use a spoon.
The 'work around' is to upgrade to a supported configuration. They are all listed here:

Oracle has stopped supporting JAVA 8 for Windows XP.You must find the other JDK provided by other companies for WINDOWS XP.
