Windows 7 RC back to XP: 'can not read cd'
I was using the Window 7 RC but now I must go back to XP because of the RC bihourly shutdowns. Buying Win 7 is not an option right now for me, I am too poor, but thank you for the chance to try Win 7, I enjoyed it.
PROBLEM: When i try to install Windows XP from my original XP Home Disk, I get the error 'Setup could not read cd or cd is not a valid windows cd'. Well I know the disk drive is working because I tested it. I know the disk is valid because this is the original XP disk (I have all the paperwork etc)
Now I am not a computer wiz but I know the basics. I have searched for a few hours and tried to resolve the problem but can not.
What can I do now? I need to get XP back on here because instant shut downs every 2 hrs is messing things up for me.
Any help is appreciated, or possible solutions.
