Hi
Make sure your cd is first in boot.
Then when you boot next make sure you have cd in.
It should ask if you want to boot from cd or hard drive.
Then go from there.

I have reformated this computer many times using FDisk and deleting the partitions and then reinstalling windows. This time when i deleted the partition and when the computer restarted, after the Dell screen comes up the monitor goes blank with only a blinking dot or cursor at the top left of the screen. I cannot type or do anything from this screen. When i restart again, i can press delete to enter setup, but i cant figure anything else to do. I cannot reinstall windows because of this and i cannot figure out what to do.
