Shouldn't do basa...

When XP detects the presence of a bootable hard drive partition it says "Press Any Key to boot from CD......" for about 10 seconds, then boots from the hard drive.

Only when there is no bootable hard drive partition will it boot back to the CD again.

Although IF the drive was formerly used on an NT based system as an extended slave drive then the drive may not have a primary partition on it. So it is an idea to let XP wipe the existing partition tables and create its own partitions from scratch.
