First off, will this laptop be capable of running XP? Think about that seriously before trying.

When the laptop powers on, press F2 to enter the BIOS and make sure your optical drive is set as the first boot device. If it can't read, consider getting a replacement CD from Microsoft or getting an exchange from the retailer you bought it from.
