[QUOTE=twistedsymphony;2258243]I 2nd what chibo said.
it sounds like your BIOS is screwed up... unplug the power, pull the back up battery and let it sit for a minute, then put the battery back in and power it back up.
You might try removing EVERYTHING from the boot sequence except the disc drive, that way if the drive fails the computer wont boot at all, you'll get an error message. If it still boots into windows then the bios settings aren't being saved.
If your disc drive is an SATA based drive that might be your problem since the drivers might not be loading until windows has already started booting. if it is an SATA based drive then see if you can locate an IDE (PATA) based drive to hook up for the install.
take note that if your Hard drives are SATA based you WILL need a floppy drive and a floppy with the SATA (RAID controller) drivers on it.

This is what I would suggest as well, although if you can still load into the BIOS right now then you may have just removed all your boot options and that is why you do not get any boot at this point. I personally wouldnt mess around in the BIOS too much if you don't have any expierence.
