Hi Peter,

Are you sure it isn't popping up with a message like "press any key to run setup'? This is a small message and appears quickly.

Thanks.
Andrew.

Hi Peter,

I actually said it wasn't necessary to go into the BIOS on the machine. I
don't actually know how to do this on the Toshiba.


Thanks.
Andrew.

Hi,
T
His is probably because you installed SP2. You need to put the disk
in and get the BIOS to boot from the disk - I don't believe I had to
change anything to get the bios to boot from the CD - it just asked me
to press any key to boot from CD ab boot time, then the setup program
launched.

Hi Andrew,
I do have all Of these drivers. Installing them is no problem.
Installing
my copy of XP Home is. I can't do it within Windows, as Windows tells
me that a newer version of windows is installed. If there was a way to
install from a command prompt. I've tried formatting the C drive, but
windows won't let me do that either, not sure how you'd do that these
days.
