Your PC is booting first from HDD and bypassing the CDROM it's normaly
should be before HDD. That's why you have this message.
Go to BIOS,change the boot sequence, in order to be, first FDD, second
CD, third HDD and try again having put the XP CDROM in the drive.

If you still facing problem, delete the HDD from the BIOS's boot
sequence and boot from CDROM.

If you again facing problem, delete the HDD record completely from the
BIOS and boot from CDROM. XP is bypassing the BIOS and will recognize
your HDD after having boot from CD. After the installation first
reboot restore the BIOS to the preavious form. This trick is working
in some BIOS not all.

GOOD LACK.
