To boot from a CD Drive with preference over a floppy, you will have to enter
your system BIOS and change the boot priority so the CD drive has priority
over the floppy drive. This should work, but it's always risky to play with
BIOS settings.

The Window XP CD is bootable. Setting CD to be the boot drive is done in
the BIOS.

if i'm right, try this : when computer starts to reboot
press either escape or the F1 key & try to boot from the options that you
want.
