Hello,

I need to do a complete system uninstall of Windows XP Home edition and
delete my partitions and then reinstall Windows XP again. However, my PC
will not let me boot up from my Windows XP disc. I put the disc in the
drive, turned the PC off and restarted and it goes thru a normal start up and
will not boot from the disc. Someone told me that I need to get the PC to go
into CMOS mode and change my boot order, but I am not sure what I need to do
in order to get it into CMOS mode. I have a Dell PC and I am hoping there is
someone out there that can help me with this.

How do I enter the BIOS, CMOS, Setup, or System Setup on my DellT computer?
