Hi everybody.
I am trying to install Windows XP profesisonal but when I
insert the CD and click INSTALL XP the computer is telling
me that the version I have in my comp is newer that one I
am installing and asking me if I want to install it anyway I
should restart the comp and boot the CD. I do not
understand what BOOT THE CD means. I restarted the
comp and thought that the CD would automatically start
seting up the program but it is not happening. What can I
do to solve this problem?
Thanks.
