My computer doesnt support installing from the cd drive. (Its a Dell
Dimension 4100, brought in 2001). So, I have created 6 boot disks for
xp.
I have my computer boot sequence as: floppy, cd-rom and hardrive.
I inserted my bootdisk#1 and started the install..after I instered all
the 6 floppies - I was prompted to insert the XP CD. I formated my
drive and started a clean install. After a while it complained about
not being able to copy some files - clspack.exe, javacypt.dll etc. I
skipped all those. The computer promted for re-starting..II removed
any floppies in the drive and restarted.
Now the problem started - It was supposed to continue installation
from the CD - But for some reason, it tries to boot from the floppy
drive . It kept complainig about wrong system disk in A: drive. If I
inserted bootdisk#1, it started the installation from the beginning.
What do I do now? Please help!
