ricskydive, you try this one. load first the default settings of your bios then save it. when you reboot your computer hit F12 at the "DELL" SCREEN and just be sure that you have the windows xp cd in the drive. it will give you the "BOOT OPTIONS MENU" or something like that. choose the option which says "IDE CDROM DEVICE/DRIVE. when you see the "PRESS ANY KEY TO BOOT TO CD...." press any key in your keyboard. it should take you to the windows setup screen and just read and follow the instructions. if you're still having trouble just reply.... rj
