XPS 420 wont boot from XP cd

Ok, so I see that none of you are having problems with this, but I can't get any XP cd to boot, "Selected boot device not available." The vista DVD boots fine, the Diag cd boots fine, but no XP..help.

proably because the SATA drivers are not in the disk. Seem more and more that the only way these systems with out a floppy drive can utilizes them is to slipstream them into the install disk..just make sure that you EXTRACT them first as they are in a compressed .exe file
