Just got a new samsung 80 gig drive in a box that is runnning iwill Award BIOS.

I put the XP cd in and when it trys to load the CD it comes up with an error.

CDBOOT: couldnt find NTLDR.

The CD is brand new.

The CD-ROM drive jumper setting is on cable select.
In BIOS it is on mode 3 ( whatever that means) Auto detect

As for the HDD, its on auto detect and LBA, UDMA 33, Master.

I went in BIOS and I cant see anything wrong, the cdrom is the first boot device. Any suggestions?
