you should boot from the XP pro OS cd. and boot from that CD. check your bios and make sure it suports cd boot and that the CD is listed first in the boot seq. If your bios is to old and dont suport cd boot you can download a program from MS that will make 6 boot flopies and then you can use that to get into the setup. here is the MS link about making boot flopies
