system setup
ide drive diagnostics
boot utility partition

select ide cd-rom device , boots straight xp. tried couple times , goes same direction. awesome. fellas , lady fellas

- wouldn't assume machine xp home can run windows 7. know actual specs of machine?

- never laid hands on dimension 2300, if it's contemporary 2400, it's ancient piece of celeron garbage doesn't run of well.

- it's possible -- -- optical drive bad or disc damaged. can boot kind of cd on it?
