Norm you would power down the pc with tray open and then place cd in tray close and boot into the cd.  Then have options presented for foemating and installation from the OEM cd.  sounds like your booted into c drive and try to run the cd.

The thread is already running here (s/he apparently posted in two forums): http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=163494

Can mods merge the two topics?

are you saving the change in the BIOS when you exit ?
