    Hi there, Im needing some help with booting windows to my toughbook CF 28.
    I have a genuine windows 2000 disc, but it dose not for some reason want to boot! I have changed the boot options in the BIOS to CD first, the cd drive seems to spin for a while but nothing happens apart from a screen just before the windows screen that has a flashing cursor - - - and then it just boots up normaly from the hard drive. The computer dose not promt me to press any buttons to boot from the cd, I was just wandering if I was doing something wrong... Many thanks,
