Ok bought a new copy of XP for the 2 computers.  It works fine on this one, but I set the bios to load the CD Rom first on the P3 but it doesnt load.  Instead it skips to the hard drive.  Tried setting all 3 on the bios to CD ROM But that didn't work either.  Any suggestions?  Your help and interest so far has been much appreciated.

we believe you, as you will go out and buy a copy in one day. But check your cd rom drive it may be no good. Try taking a cd rom drive out of your other computer and putting it in your p3. And see if that works. And if that doesn't work,

Computers are the future, not us. Learn everything you can about them while you still can, soon they will be learning about us... Every bit of advice that I give you is best guess, it is your choice whether or not you listen to it.
