If your computer is not booting from the floppy, you may need to change the boot device sequence so that the computer tries to boot from floppy (or CD if that is an option).
Tested patched BIOSes. Untested patched BIOSes.

Nick.....im not really a computer guy, but how do you change the boot device sequence?
thanx
In BIOS Setup you should find an option. How to find it and change it depends on your BIOS. If you have a very old BIOS possibly the BIOS may not allow you to include CDROM as part of the boot sequence, however this is unlikely if you have a computer that is adequate to run Windows XP.
