    Save yourself a bunch of time trying to figure out the problem. Re-install windows. Insert the cd, restart the computer and follow the prompts. You could spend a couple hours trying to figure out the problem, or about 30 minutes reinstalling.

    Have you changed the BIOS Boot order for the drives? If you haven't make sure that you choose the cd-rom or dvd-rom to be the first boot device in the list.
