I'm working on a friend's computer trying to reinstall XP. The computer is an old Dell that had XP Home Edition preinstalled. I have the reinstallation CD for "Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition: Including Service Pack 1a."

Problem:
- I changed the BIOS to boot from CD first, but the drive doesn't run during startup.
- Accessed the boot menu using F8, but the CD drive is not listed.
- Every time I try to reboot, whether it be normally, in any of the safe modes, or from last known good configuration, I get the blue screen of death immediately after I select how to startup (safe mode, normal, last known good configuration).
- Replaced the memory and the computer recognized the change in memory, but I still get BSOD.

ANY SUGGESTIONS TO REINSTALL XP???
