Did you put your operating system cd in the computer? XP will boot from the cd. You will have to change the boot device to the cdrom you are using.

I can't load my OS (XP Pro) because I can't get my keyboard to work. Its a wireless from CompUSA. I put in part 1 of a boot floppy for the SATA HD but when it asks to put the 2nd floppy and press "C" to continue I can't because the keyboard won't work. I got my OS cd to start loading but it asks to hit enter to continue but again I can't .I shut it down now I just get the start of a boot and it stops at "verifying DMI pool data " and the cursor sits there and blinks...........anyone have some much needed help?

Try using a non wireless kb/mse for the installation.
If you haven't got one, borrow one.
Or buy a cheap set
