Default booting doesn't work (hardware prob??)

Hi,

just an idea that passed my mind: Switch the cdrom drive
of the other pc which you tried to install xp on, with
the one you are now installing xp on. It could be that
its non multi-read or something like that. I can't
install from one of my cdrom drives, but in the other
drive it works fine. Try this, and let me know if it
worked.

Good luck,

Hi

I've tried everything but just can't fix it. If I boot

from the windows
cd-rom everything goes well untill "Setup is starting

windows". It won't go
any further. On an other computer everything works fine,

so my cd is ok. I
thought maby a hardware prob so I removed everything but

my video card, and
my cd-rom ofcource. Problem stays. A couple of months

ago everything worked
fine, windows was installed and no problem. What can be

the problem?
Something with my motherboard, bios maybe? I tried linux

and that worked.
Why does windows keep hanging?
Thx
