I have a home built AMD 950 with a Abit KT7A (via133) mobo. Here 's the problem, I reset the bios to boot to CD ROM first, but for whatever reason, the drive won 't boot the CD1 - the drive is a Toshiba DVD ROM SD M1502. It 'll doesn 't have any problem reading the Win XP CD. Any suggestions? Perhaps a bad CD? However, I did try the floppy install and created a boot disk using rawrite, but once the "Boot " prompt comes up I 'll hit enter and then it states its an invalid disk. hmmm. does anyone have any idea what I 'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Wes
