My laptop isn't allowing me to boot from ROM drive. In
BIOS, these are my boot settings and boot options:
QuickBoot:Enable, Multibootisable, and this is my Boot
Order: Notebook Multibay:First, Notebook hard
drive:Second, Notebook Ethernet Boot:Third. When I boot,
it goes directly to the desktop. Therefore, I insert the
CD, it runs, and gives me 4 options, one of which is to
install XP. I then continue and chose clean install, as
opposed to upgrade. After installation, my old
files/folders are still there. THANKS IN ADVANCE

I've done that. Bootup system, to goes directly to
desktop. I then remove and reinsert CD into drive. Setup
launches automatically. I choose two options: advanced
clean install and to delete existing files/folders, but
after the process, my old files/folders are still there.
The only newly installed is Windows. My laptop won't
boot directly to CD drive. THANKS
