Welcome guest, to my simple method of xp setup. He whole process will show you  the easy process of installing windows xp in your PC.You can ask me why I have chosen windows xp ignoring others. As WINDOWS XP PRO is a most advanced and user friendly to use that’s why I have chosen it.
 A best tip is before install WINDOWS XP PROFESSIONAL you have to do clean install. It is very easy. My recommendation is before installation you check your Windows XP Compatibility List  to know does your hardware supported by XP? If it is not support you can go to your hardware manufacturer’s website for downloading compatible drivers for your PC. Save all needed file and drivers in pen drive or hard disk or floppy disk before install.
 All versions of’ Windows XP CD’ you will find in market are bootable. To boot from CD/DVD-ROM you have to set the boot series. See for giving the boot series under your BIOS setup &be ensure that your first boot device is set under CD/DVD-ROM.now you can start your setup process.
Steps 1 - Start your PC & insert your bootable CD into your CD /DVD DRIVE. Wait for sometime. Then you will see a message that is -"Press any key to boot from CD. So press any key from keyboard as you wish. When booting from CD you will see the following screen face on your pc.
Step 2 - In this second stage you will see a massage asking you  to press F6 to install a third party Raid or SCSI driver. Are you using IDE Hard Drive? If yes, then you need not press F6. If your hard disk is SCSI or SATA, you have to press F6 .be aware that you have Raid drivers’ one floppy disk. Usually it is include in CD from which you can copy to others disk or floppy disk to install later. If you confused about this please read your mother board procedure to know more about.
