continuous setup loop

[Johnie]

Installed windows xp on new hard drive on self build
computer using a oem windows xp disk. after getting
errors caused by the file fastfat.sys..... Finally was
able to install windows xp and install sbc yahoo dsl among
other programs. After becoming frustrated with operating
system i decided to perform fdisk in an attempt to remove
windows xp from hard drive and then format drive. Found
there was a logical drive in extended partition that would
not delete. Windows xp was loaded usng ntfs. After some
thought decided to try to load xindows xp with same cd as
before but know get caught in an endless setup boot. It
goes through loading, copying files, etc, then restarts
computer and starts setup all over again. This happens
every time when it restarts. How do I stop the loop and
continue loading XP?

Go to your BIOS and set CD ROM to boot first.
Put XP cd in and reboot your PC
