I have an hp Pavilion 533w desktop computer. I am having trouble installing an original copy of Windows XP Pro on the computer. I get stuck when the computer asks me to choose. F1 to setup or F2 to resume. How do I get past this to finish the install?:confused:

That's a bios issue. Did you press F1 and check the settings? Is the hard drive detected? Is the CD drive set first in the boot order?

Yes to everything.

Did you try another bootable CD? did you try swapping the CD drive?
