    You need to boot from the XP cd.Setup will then format the partition and install XP.

    Go into your BIOS setup and change the First Boot Device entry to CDROM.
    Save the changes and reboot,quickly pop the XP cd in,and hit enter when you see the Boot from CD message.XP will install some files and will then offer the set up options.Select which type of format you want(not quick format) and the partition you wish to install on.The whole installation process takes about an hour.

    When XP is has finished installing go back into your BIOS setup and change the "First Boot Device" to Floppy.
