I had to change the BIOS config to cd rom startup, but I can't remember what my default is and now I cant get it to boot. I have partially installed Win 2000 Pro but when it prompts to restart to finish installation thats when I get the error message.
Thanks in advance for any help!

just take out the cd, and boot from the harddrive, and put it back in when it askes , in the bios, just click on default settings, it should set it up as floppy, hd, cdrom in that order

You have to change your settings to the following:
1)Make your First Boot device the Hard disk ( IDE-0 )..
2)It's prefered to plug your hard disk as a Primary Master.. and your CD Rom as a Secondary Master or Primary Slave, this can be done by checking :
i) The Jumpers of the Hard drives
ii) The Cables and in which IDEs they're plugged...
