I have formated the drive on a Pentium III to install XP
Pro. The installation process stops and says I have a
non system disk in the CD Rom drive. Have tried to
reboot from A: with XP system recovery disk and still no
luck. Error on A: is Romove disk or other media. Press
any key to restart. Have also changed boot sequence with
no luck. Tried to get to an A: prompt using Win 98 boot
disk and then manually opening file. Error said this
file could not book from DOS.

Any Suggestions?

To perform a clean install of Windows XP you simply boot your computer from
the XP CD. No floppy disk is needed. Take any floppy disk out of the
diskette drive and be sure that your BIOS is set to boot from the CD drive
first (i.e., before the floppy drive). With the XP CD in your CD drive,
reboot your computer and away you go.
