how to booting cdrom in computer?
608039
Firstly the CD-ROM disc itself must be bootable (most operating system discs - Linux, Windows 2000 and XP etc are). Then you might have to change the Boot Device order in your PC's BIOS. This will vary depending on your motherboard manufacturer.\n\nSometimes referred to as the boot sequence this determines which devices your PC searches for bootable media. If your CD-ROM drive is ahead of the hard-drive, this should be searched first allowing you to use an operating CD or similar.\n\nSee the links below for details.

The first thing you should do is make sure you have ALL the drivers your computer needs to work!!  i.e. network card, sound card, video card etc...(they may not all be on your windows disk) then when your sure you have everything (very sure),Pop in a windows start up disk (Floppy A type) restart your comp. After a min. or so you will have some options appear, Select..[Start computer without CD-rom support.]After some time you will see a command prompt like this..\n\n A:/\n\nmake it look like this..A:/format c:\n\nthen hit enter and follow the prompts, it should take about an hour or so. After its done start your computer with the Floppy disk again and select [Start computer with CD-rom support] it will tell you the letter of your CD rom. If your CD-rom is "E" than make your prompt look likt this...\nA:/E:/setup.\n\n     Good luck\n       -Mark

check\n1) If your CD is a Bootable CD\n2) Check your Boot BIOS sequence.

Place a Windows 98 startup disk into the floppy drive-start the pc-let the floppy take you to "a" prompt-type in format/s c: There is a space between the s and c. Once you have formatted and restarted the computer,and it is back to "A" prompt, type in the drive your disk is on- usually E:then once it is on E:, type in dir -then type in cd me-or cd 98-or cd xp(your Windows 98-or me-or xp)-then type in - setup. this should take your to the disk's program and start install.\n\n       Good luck!!!

Go to Bootdisk.com, download a boot disk maker program. Boot the computer with the bootdisk in the floppy drive. Use the command format c:/S  DONE!! If you are using Windows XP, you can put the CD in the drive and reboot to it providing your BIOS is set to Boot to CD drive first, if not you can easily change it. The XP Cd will give you the option to reformat.

don't need the boot-CD. \n\nJust: Start - Programs - Accessoires - System Tools - System restore (and choose a date and follow the wizard)

look for programs to make bootable CDs on the internet. You will need to enable the BIOS to boot from the CD.

Pre: make sure you're windows XP is bootable\n\nMake your CD-Rom as 1st Boot. to do this, go to "Bios Setup" by pressing "Del" or "F2" for some system just read on the screen during POST.\n\nthen after that, you'll see an installation window. Next, since it's not formatted yet, you'll see there a formatting option so just go on with the window instruction. it's so easy.\n\nThen you'll have you'r cd formatted and XP installed. Just follow what the window instsallation said so.. Thanks.\n\nand oh, please don't forget to rate my answer.. thanks and good luck ^_^

You need to use the windows cd to boot from it and then you have to choose boot from command prompt. In there you can use the command of format c:&#92;.

Go into the BIOS and set it so that your CD-ROM drive boots first. Then restart the computer with your operating system's install disk in the CD-ROM drive. It should be fairly simple from there. Once the operating system is loaded, be sure to reinstall any and all drivers required for your hardware, which should have come on a disc with the computer, or along with the hardware if you upgraded with aftermarket parts.

You need to BOOT from your cd - not just use it in windows.  Put it in the drive - then cancel anything that pops up - shutdown your machine leaving the CD in and then restart - watch the screen for the command to press any key to boot from CD - follow the instructions and do a windows REPAIR/REINSTALL - this will replace the missing files.  If you don't get the prompt to boot from CD then you need to go to the bios and enable the CD drive as your primary boot device.

First, i think you need to restart your computer and try to see whether the CDROM is detected during initial boot. \n\nIf you can't see that, then depending on your computer, you can access BIOS setup by clicking F1, F2 or the delete key during boot. Check and see if it is among the detected Hard Drives under the standard CMOS setup, if it is not click F3 to auto detect it. \n\nIf it is not detected, then you need to eliminate the possible causes one after the other. \n\nFirst, is it a problem with the CDROM, as in is it working at all. That is a complex one to solve, so maybe you need to just take it to a repair shop. \n\nTwo, is there a problem with the connecting medium, the IDE cable connecting the CDROM with the motherboard? Is it properly fixed to the board and the CDROM. Check to see if the cable is damage if it is not, try using another cable.\n\nThree, make sure the plug from the power pack is properly connected to the CDROM\n\nIf this are all resolved, then your CDROM should be detected on the standard CMOS setup.\n\nIf it is now detected on the standard CMOS setup but still not working, then open control panel, open Add hardward, click next to allow it search for the CDROM, it will bring out 2 options asking whether the hardware is already connected or not, choose, "yes, i have already connected it" it would bring out a list of installed hardwares and will put a yellow icon beside hardwares that don't have proper drivers.\nIf your CDROM is one of the ones with the yellow icon, then click it and click next, it would prompt you to choose where it should search the driver from, choose, CDROM and other devices like floppy, insert the driver that came with the CDROM, , after installing the driver, your CDROM should work perfectly. \n\nIf it is not among those with the yellow icon, then still click it and click update driver, it will prompt you to insert the driver for the CDROM.\n\nI think your CDROM would be damaged if after all these trouble shooting it doesn't still work, either buy a new one or just fix it.

Insert the WinXP CD in the CDROM drive (or DVD drive if no CDROM is\navailable). When your computer starts booting, press the DEL key and\nenter the CMOS Setup utility. In the "Advanced" section you should see\nthe boot sequence. Set the first boot device to CDROM and the second\nboot device to HDD0 (that's hard drive zero). Save setting and exit.\nWhen it says "Press any key to boot from CD..." hit enter. Windows will\nstart, load drivers and other necessary files into memory. Follow each\nscreen until you get to the partitioning screen. Choose to delete the\nprimary partition if there is only one. If there are more than one,\ndelete the secondary partition(s) first then the primary. Next create a\nnew partition. Windows setup will then format the drive and install the\nOS.\n\nIf you ignore the message Press any key to boot from CD..." the system\nwill boot from the hard drive after the above steps are completed. Later\ngo back to the CMOS Setup Utility and set the boot sequence back to\nnormal.
