Re: Windows XP Professional Boot Disk Download

I created the 6 boot disks on CD (used winimage to copy to CDs after downloading the 6 floppies).

When I tried to boot my computer (dell 2400) having changed the BIOS to boot from CD instead of hard disk, the boot failed!
I got the message 'strike F1 to retry, F2 for setup'.
Your are saying that booting this way should not be a problem. Logically I agree, but why doesn't it work for me? Any ideas?
