If the computer has a floppy drive, I would recommend creating a floppy bootdisk, and having generic cd-rom drivers load when it boots from the floppy, this will allow you to insert a CD and use it. If you're trying to boot from a Windows cd or the like, you should be able to insert the cd, and navigate the CD to find the "autorun" or "setup" file. Try the following website for your bootdisk, they make it quite easy, though it's not the easiest website to navigate: http://www.bootdisk.com/.\n\nI hope that helps, and good luck with your problem!

If the bios is set to boot the CD ROM-possibly the harddrve has died.  If the hardrive isn't spinning on bootup the computer isn't going to find the operating system. I might try another version of linux before purchasing another hd.  \nIs the windows xp cd really a dvd and the computer only a cd rom?

How do you intend to boot without a floppy drive?  You want to make a bootable CD ROM?\n\nMaybe try: http://www.nu2.nu/bootcd/cdromsi/

this is very similar to my case, i owned a HP desktop running a HP XP home version(original) and i later custom built the desktop. I was trying to have the computer boot up but it wouldn't allow it to.\n\nmy solution was to get a new hard drive and use my Dell XP home operating system on my HP, and without any problems it work great\n\nConcusion: get a new hard drive( or wipe out the old operating system) and reboot your HP with the Dell operating disk\n\nremember to backup all your files\n\nright as you turn on your computer (after the files are backed up and you either have a new harddrive or wiped the old OS) put the genuine disk into the computer

Maybe the CD is not a BOOTABLE CD. It has to be for it to work, but you can also use a start-up disk (Win98) if have any,.....or search and download it off the internet. during the booting, select start with CD-ROM support.

well I have not heard a lot about hps crashing if th cd-R is having error that means it is toast I just home it is just bullshit on the disk but other wize the disk is dead but one thing you can try cleaning the cd-r with windex or go to walmart and buy a scratch remove kit witch is $19.99 but other wipe clean and hope that works but warning when cleaning cd any kind of cd don't wipe in circals wipe across the cd not around but remimber that because then u can say good bye to the cd but some time not but use caution\nalso your computer maybe just being stupid or if you have internet on the computer you mite of put a virus on the cd with out knowing there is so meny things that could go wrong or the company you bot the cd from gave you a bad cd by asitdit so I don't know just try some of though thing they may work if it don't work E-mail me at bisexualboy65@yahoo.com

First of all try this method. Connect the USB DVD burner before you boot your machine. Then make sure it is displayed on device manager. And then install the latest Nero product (7.5.9), (but I think even nero 6.0 will work) and install the software that came along with the Burner. This will solve your problem

I agree that there probably isn't a problem with your graphics card. It might be that the version of Red Hat that you are trying to install doesn't recognize the newer equipment. As another response suggested you may wish to try Red Hat sponsored Fedora Core or one of the other highly rated distributions like PC Linux or Ubuntu which both also offer LiveCD's so that you can test them from the CD and verify that everything should work before you install to your harddrive.
