Instead of just changing boot order, what i always do if i have issues is to remove all options except cdrom. that way there is nothing for it to look for except the cdrom drive, if you are still having issues, and have the option to do it from a usb drive, you can copy the xp cd to a drive and set it up that way, i had issues installing win7 on cd, and used the usb option flawlessly, hope that helps, and good luck :)
Try booting up with a windows98 bootable disk. If it displays the BIOS, select default settings and try to boot in safe mode & try restoring it to a time when it worked properly................sodeep
PS: Use a CD/DVD cleaner CD to cleam the optical head of the ROM
