AndyRemove the floppy from the drive and re-boot...The computer does not have a floppy drive in it, and i booted from a cdAre you SURE there isn't a floppy? Have you taken the cd out and changed your boot sequence back to book from the hard drive first?Yes im positive, and i had the cd rom first and then the hard drive second, so i changed it back to hard drive first and i get the same results, im soo stuckWho made this XP CD ? ?
I don't believe MS XP CD's have Caldera Dos on them...if they do it's the first i've heard of it.I've NEVER heard of that EITHER being on a MS XP cd. Can you tell us where you got that cd?its a legit version of windows it came in a case , and everything.Does it end after loading at a Dos prompt such as C: ?

If so type D: and hit Enter...
At the D: prompt type setup and hit Enter...

I can honestly say i've never seen this from an XP CD. Does the CD have holograms and say Microsoft all over it ? ?
