If you don't care about losing the data on your machine, what's the problem rebooting from the install disk? 0. Put the Install CD in. 1. Reboot and go to BIOS. 2. Go to the tab/section where it says something like 'Boot Device Priority"..something similar. 3. There, change the priority so that your CDROM is listed at Priority #1. 4. Save the changes and exit BIOS. Your computer should now boot from the CD (Watch closely, it *may* ask you to press a certain key to book from CD). 5. Reinstall/repair your XP. #3 may not be very intuitive. Ask if you need further help. Just don't say "I did it and still doesn't work"... If you need more help, Reddy is my IT guy. He usually comes to pretty girls' rescue instantaneously. So pretend like a pretty girl if you are a guy... In jest ;-)
