Default Installing Windows XP need help! you really have to know what your doing to

answer this? I I have been installing Windows XP home edition on my new computer that i just built...when i get to about 35 minutes left the screen goes blue and says irql less or not equal.. i believe my problem is that i have been installing windows with a disc that is only made for my gateway computer and is Service Pack 1. Then i found my windows xp pro disc that can be used for any computer. However, whenever i put the pro disc in, it just tries to resume the home edition installation and prompts me for the home disc. Is there anyway i can revert this and try to go back to starting over and try to install pro? whenever i put my home disc in before it will resume installation it will say press any key to boot from CD and i can start it all over .

Do i need to do anything in the BIOS to make the CD autorun because it is burned and if i do then how do i get to the BIOS nothing showsme how to get to the BIOS please help thanks
