My XP tells me that I need to make my own reinstallation discs, it'll take 6 CD's. I haven't done it yet though.

In your bios make sure the boot sequence is 1.cdrom 2.hd0 (harddrive) and 3.floppy The default is normally 1.floppy and that's why the cd won't boot.

Have you changed the computer in any way (like adding memory perhaps)? It has to be at the original factory settings for the cd to work.

It sounds like your registry is toast. Can be perilous.
