Yes that's right. The usualBoot sequence is CD, Floppy, then HD...although
I've actually taken the Floppy drive out of the equation on my system.

Actually, I can't. I do not have XP myself but only 2k and therefore 
am no expert on what is and is not possible with xp.

I thought you had problems getting the repair option to come up, i.e. 
that your machine performed a regular reboot and dit not access the 
cd but booted from your hard drive. I was therefore wondering if your 
machine's bios is actulaly set to boot from cd. Thhis means the cd 
drive would need to come before the hd in the boot sequence. You do 
need sighted assistence to have your bios set to boot from cd.

I said I was not sure if you would have speech at the point the 
repair option comes up when it does come up. This is for xp users to 
answer and not myself.

Sorry for any confusion i might have caused here.

Cheers,

Doris
