I'm trying to do a clean install of XP Pro but I am totally stuck!! I can boot with the XP disc, and it copies the files to start with to the disk but when it reboots to continue the installation the setup does not start. I've been into the BIOS to change the drive boot order, I've tried putting the CD-ROM first and HDD0 but no luck. When the PC first boots up it detects the HD OK, the disk is running as a single master, I've tried the Single Master jumper setting and cable select.

The disk is a WD IDE 160GB.

Any advice welcomed
