Lately I have not been able to use my computer because it always tries
to boot from the CD. I have tried everything. I set my BIOS to boot
from 1)floppy, 2)HDD and disabled the 3rd and it still attempts to
boot from the CD before any of the other devices. I have ran the
repair console from the XP CD as well as fixing and creating new boot
records. I even tried booting from by backup BIOS since my
motherboard is equipped with a dual bios, as well as tried booting
with my CDROM drive IDE cable disconnected from the motherboard, and
it still attempts to boot from the CDROM.
