I have new computer and all components are fine, but I can't install windows
xp. I try to put cd to my dvd-drive, but it just says: "Disk boot failure,
insert system disk and press enter".

I have
sata hard disk, first sata master
liteon dvd, primary ide master, jumper also set to "master"
and no other ide devices

My drive reads the cd, at least I can hear reading sound, but nothing
happens. My motherboard is Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe and I have bios 1002.

Try changing your boot sequence in the BIOS to boot off the CD.
 
Have you set the BIOS to show the first boot preference to be the CD
ROM?
