Follow this path – Control Panel -> System and Maintenance -> System -> Advanced System Settings -> Advanced from the tab and click Settings in Startup and Recovery. Now, uncheck this option – Time to display list of operating systems. Click on Ok.

Try booting directly to the CD – you may need to change the boot order in BIOS. Then you should be able to install XP.

I have win xp on a hard disk, and i just installed win 7 on another. For security, i set first to boot, win xp(which by the way, i think will remain the best op. system ever). After a while, after i saw how crappy it is, i unninstaled win 7. Why is crappy win 7, because very few drivers on the originally instalation disk, worked(sound driver, graphic, webcam, and very many utillities, including my antivirus…) . I searched one month on specialized sites, and very little solutions i found. Microsoft is bullshiting us, with stupid solutions… After i formatted the hard disk in which was win 7…, after rebooting appeared the dual sytem booting message, despite the non-existent win 7… I followed up the instruction above, and like a miracle, this ennoying message dissapeared, and my computer boot normally like before. It worked… Thousand thanks, for the tutorial, editor! ♣

I hear you Peter. A ‘Friend’ had a beta disc, and installed it on my computer on a seperate drive. I decided against Windows 7 for the time being, and now my ‘friend’ says he lost his disc. I have tried every other suggestions from numerous sites with no luck. Reformatted the drive to get rid of it, but it still stops at the ‘which system to boot too’ screen. My Xp install disc would not work. At the “r” option, it says ‘no disk drives found’, with no other options.

That’s not a problem with the OS, you can’t run the 64 bit version of bootsec.exe from 32 bit Win XP. Documented at many sites.

Nice to hear that. If you find any problem with your OS again then do let me know.
