[pchelpers] Re: Question about boot disk

as your pc boots up, keep hitting the delete button. this will get you into
the bios setting.  look for the heading BOOT and using your up/down arrows
and sideways arrows, move the hi-lited bit over BOOT. hit enter and then
look for the heading 1st boot device then hi-lite and you will be told how
to move the deice up or down they desired Boot sequence. then after you make
the changes, hit F10 to save and exit.

If you're running XP, then it's best to make your CD drive 1st boot, the
your A drive second (my personal preference) the C drive to boot third
