I've got to install Windows on a Dell PC which is small form factor and has no CD/DVD installed. I opened it up to install one but the IDE connector is too small for the usual cables.

I've borrowed an external cdrom which connects via USB, will i be able to boot from this? How can it be done....is it just a case of selecting boot from usb in the bios or is there some other way of doing it?

Your advice and help would be appreciated.
