Hi.. I have a HP pavilion laptop with vista
installed on it. Due to some problem the laptop
is not working, so i wanted to change my O.S
to windows Xp. I set the cd-rom drive as first
bootable device in boot menu..but when
booting it's not showing cd-rom drive in boot
sequence and i can't install xp. Any
suggestions welcome.

Thanks.
