Ok, so im finally sick of vista, just cant stand the performance loss, or the other random little bugs anymore. I have an xp disc, and when i try to boot from cd ( all the bios boot options are set to cdrom) it just boots off the hard drive any way. It doesnt even ask me. How should i go about installing it.
 
Did you try going to the boot menu and forcing to boot off of the CD drive?
 
I did, theyre all set to boot from cd rom, all three options, and it just bypasses that and boots vista from the hard drive
