USB keyboard doesn't work while booting (trying to install XP on Win2003 machine)

I'm trying to install Windows XP from it's original CD to Windows
Server 2003 PC.

I can access BIOS with clicking DEL.
But when system restarts and asks "press any key to boot from CD", the
keyboard doesn't work.
It starts to work under Windows Server 2003 again, but I can't install
XP from there.

Any help, how can I change my operating systems in that case?


Thanks,
Martin

You need to Enable USB Legacy Devices in the BIOS or something similar.
