Sorry to be picky, but as this is a new PC with no OS, how is he going to copy the CD on to the HD?
DOS I would expect since he has a boot up floppy that will contain certain basic functions?
Since he wants an easy to follow installation I would suggest just leaving him to install it as normal for now
