The first thing you want to do is get into BIOS.  Do this by holding down the "DEL" key when you first turn the computer on, then make sure that the computer is set to boot from CDROM as the first option.

After that restart and it should start reading from the ME CD.

From there you can pretty much follow directions.

If you are at another computer right now we can meet in chat and I will wall you thru some of it.

What went wrong the last time, i.e., at what step did you run into problems, and if you got error messages what did they say?

The more info you give us, the better we'll be able to help you.

Are you reinstalling or is this a clean install....what led you to this point??

System restore disks can be very tricky!

are you using the computer now?

I am not certain that these errors are related to ME. What virus do you have? Do these errors occur during or after the boot sequence?
