Hi, I have recently been given a Fujitsu Siemens lifebook B by a friend so I can do a clean install for him. The laptop itself doesnt have a CD drive so I hooked up an external and tried to change the boot order to CD first.

When in the bios I have 2 devices. Hard Disk and floppy. In the hard disk options I have the Fujitsu hard drive option and "Bootable add in cards". I assumed that was any external CD drive I add so selected that as a priority. On reboot nothing changed. The system just booted as normal with no option to "press any key to boot from CD".

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong ?

It has an old version of windows 2000 on it that wont boot because of a bsod error message. I just wanted to do a clean install and put XP on it.

Any help would be great
