Hi, I am looking for a Windows XP Dedicated server.
Can you suggest anyone?

You could get a bare dedicated server with KVM/iDrac/IPMI access to install your own Win XP. I doubt you will find a provider that has XP as a OS option...

Agreed - since XP is no longer supported, it is a huge security risk.

Not only a huge security risk, it doesn't support most of the hardware used today. Why would you even want that?

Precisely.

the only legitimate case I could even think of... for an outdated OS if the application(s) that the client require to runs cannot runs on newer OSes. But again why would your business running on outdated apps and left alone an outdated OS??

It is possible, but there are some issues with that:
1. Client will need to install it by using IPMI/IP-KVM
2. Write drivers for new hardware
