can not load win xp

[JACK MANN]

My computer will not load from cd or floppy. All I get is the mfg logo on my
screen. My WIN XP and various recovery floppies are not read after the power
button is pressed. Nothing is happening, except the logo. No f keys or other
actions get any action.
WinXP home worked on this computer until it stopped.
Help please.

My gut says clear the cmos, try again.
