Hey guys,
A newbie to the board so please go easy on me lol!
I got an old computer from a friend..a Dell Optiplex GX110. P3 733Mhz, 128mb, 10gb...no OS
So I turned on the computer and got the msg: Strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for setup utility.
I popped in an XP Pro CD (its burnt), and pressed F1...restarts and comes back to the same page...
The other problem is: the CD tray closes, opens, closes, then opens and stays OPEN!...is this a hardware problem?...or the computer rejecting the CD?
My boot sequence has CDROM as #1...Anyone know the problem/solution?
ANY help would be appreciated! Thanks!
