In the BIOS setup screen there should be some way to set the boot order. make sure the CD is in the list, and comes before the hard drive. If that doesn't fix it : When the system is running whatever is already on the hard drive, see what the CD looks like. If it has one HUGE file named xxxxx.iso, you didn't copy the iso file to the CD as a bootable image. You need to use the "burn iso file to CD" or similar option in your CD burning program when doing this, or it will just copy the ISO file as an ordinary Windows file. You want it to move the iso file to the CD verbatim, because it is an image of a bootable CD file system. Jon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
