Steps For Installing Windows XP Professional from a CD-ROM
1. Make sure that your computer is set up to start from the CD-ROM drive. If you are not sure how to do this, consult your computer documentation for information about accessing the BIOS settings.
2. Insert the Windows XP Professional installation CD into your CD-ROM drive and restart the computer. When the computer restarts, the text mode portion of the installation begins. During this time, you will be asked if you need to install any third-party drivers. You only have a few seconds to press the F6 key and install the drivers before the installation continues.
Note Some computers will require you to press a key to boot from the CD-ROM drive. If you are prompted to press any key to boot from the CD, press the spacebar.
3. Windows loads a number of files needed for setup, and the Welcome To Setup screen appears after a few minutes. You can use this screen to set up Windows XP or to repair an existing installation. Press ENTER to continue with the installation.
4. The Windows XP Licensing Agreement appears. After reading the terms of the license, press F8 to accept the terms and continue the installation. If you do not accept the agreement, Setup does not continue.
5. After you accept the Licensing Agreement, Setup proceeds to the Disk Partitioning portion. If you have multiple partitions, Setup will list them and allow you to you choose which one to install XP Professional to. If you have no partitions configured, you can create one at this point.

7. The Format screen appears, which is where you decide how the drive should be formatted (FAT or NTFS). Select Format The Partition Using The NTFS File System and press ENTER.
Caution If you are planning on dual booting your computer with an operating system that does not support NTFS, your C drive cannot be formatted with NTFS. You might want to install Windows XP Professional in a different drive and format that drive with NTFS.
8. Setup displays a screen warning that formatting the disk will delete all files from it. Press F to format the drive and continue.
9. After the format process is complete, Setup copies the files needed to complete the next phase of the install process and then restarts the computer.
10. After the computer restarts, Setup enters the GUI mode portion of the installation.
11. Setup continues the installation for several minutes, and then displays the Regional And Language Options page. Make sure that the settings are correct for your area, and then click Next.

14. The Computer Name And Administrator Password page appears. Enter a name for your computer, choose a password for the Administrator account, and click Next.
15. The Date And Time Settings page appears. Make sure that the information is correct for your area and click Next. If Setup detects an installed network adapter, Setup will install network components next.
16. The Network Settings page appears. You should select the Typical Settings option if you want Setup to automatically configure networking components. Typical components include Client For Microsoft Networks, File And Print Sharing For Microsoft Networks, and TCP/IP. Click Next.
17. After you choose the network settings, Setup displays the Workgroup Or Computer Domain name page. Enter the appropriate information and click Next.
18. After you click Next in the Workgroup Or Computer Domain page, Setup continues with the final portion of the installation. It might take from 15 to 60 minutes for the process to finish. When the installation is complete, the computer restarts and you are prompted to log on for the first time.
