Is it plugged into the motherboard and the power? Does it show up in the BIOS?
all it does when it ask to choose the proper boot device or put in the os disk and press a key, the drive light blinks after i put in the disk and then about 20 seconds go by it ask again for the device or disk.
In the BIOS, make sure that the boot sequence (the order that the computer reads the devices to boot off of) has the DVD drive set first. It sounds like your hard drive is the first selected.
