I built my computer the other day, and I tried to boot it up today.
Everything was detected, and the BIOS opened up. I put in the install
disk for windows XP, and the CD drive started to load it, but then
stopped. Nothing happened and the drive just sat there. I don't know
what to do! Please help me out!

Your boot sequence is set to 'boot from ATAPI /CD-ROM first?
