Thread: Win XP repair boot from cd

Hi. This looks like a nice place.

I have followed instructions from a link I found here. Trying to do an XP repair.

When I installed it, it never got past the flash screen with three blue dots.

I have changed BIOS to boot CD first. So I ran through the repair sequence, files loaded, etc.

When it reboots, I have two choices

• If I do nothing, it skips the boot from CD (type any key to boot from CD) and goes to the next page and boots WinXp
• If I hit a key to reboot CD, it starts install sequence all over again instead of continuing to install

How do I get it to reboot from CD by itself? I have changed the BIOS listing. I am running Win98 on aCeleron 1.8 desktop.

It starts to boot up XP and then stops at the flash screen with three blue dots and never goes any further.
