I am currently doing a fresh install of XP home. After I do the first step of deleting the partition and copying the files into the installation folder, the computer then restarts. When it boots up, I get the error message Disk Boot Error, please insert system disk. The disc I am using is fine. I even tried using a windows XP pro disc that I have, this does not work either. It's not a hardware fault as I have tried it using both dvd drives.

Any ideas on wht's wrong?
