When I turned on everything, and the first 3 times it had the menu where I would adjust the time, date and had all the HDD and Optical drive info. And now when I boot it up, it says System Boot Error, insert System Disk and press ENTER.
So im assuming this means I put in the OS (Windows Media Center) and nothing happens, just the HDD gets loud and it says the same message again.
Do I need an internet connection to install it?

Next you need to configure your bios.
It should pretty much be configured, but you might need to set a few things. Usually the time and date. Then check your boot order to install your OS.
If you'r installing off floppy then boot like floppy, hdd, cd/dvd.
If your booting from cd then boot like cd/dvd, hdd, floppy.
[edit]
Yeah, its basically telling you it can't find a disk to boot off. Change you bios settings as above and it'll fire off the OS install.

Have you told your bios your booting off a cd?
If you haven't then you need to.
If you haven't then you need to.

How do I do that?
The displayed screen doesnt let me do anything, it just shows information.

I assume you have a keyboard plugged in. Before your pc tries to boot, it will post at which point down the bottom of the screen will be an option 'Press [Del] to enter setup'.
Pressing delete will take you into your bios.
Look in advanced bios features or chipset features for something relating to the order your pc looks for boot devices. IE your floppy drive, your hard drive and your cd drive. It usually defaults to floppy, harddrive, cd-rom. You need to change it so it looks for your cd drive first, then your HDD then your floppy.

Remember to change the settings back once you've finished the install.
You don't want your PC trying to boot of the cd-drive first everytime you turn it on.
