- WHat OS are you running???
XP???

Put the disk in and power down and reboot
When the power on is started hit F4 untill something recognises,
if I am right the disk will ask you what you want to instal???

for this one there a few steps to cover,,,

First to save all your info from this machine you will have to take the hard drive to another machine to extract all the important info.,
Should be a simple copy and paste process,folder to folder

This is a dual purpose check too,
It will let your see if the drive is ok ,
and to check if password locked too.

Next is to reset the bios,
change to default settings and reboot
the old settings may still be setup so this will reset them.

once this is done then the install should be straight forward,

if you need more help just ask,
Hope this helps ,
Thanks

- Try F2 or F8 at start up

- The best solution I can offer is take to a computer repair person,
They can address any issues when they have the machine in front of them,

The macine may have other faults we are not aware off.
