Yeah sometimes that problem happens .. You need to install XP and then Upgrade it the OS itself ..

Are you sure that you've set the First Boot Device to your CD/DVD ROM ???

@official : The first boot device by default is always the Floppy Drive.I was just telling him to try and set the CD DVD as the first boot device and then try and see if it works or not.

the best way would be to install thru windows XP(unless u have Sata-RAID) as mentioned above

When installing from XP u dont need to boot from the dvd... and choose a new install insted of upgrade otherwise it will install over XP...
