This is after the format and you've booted into the pre-Windows environment? Is this a full copy of Windows XP or is, like, an OEM version that comes with a PC? If it is the latter case, perhaps you do not have the necessary drivers installed, although I can't see how you'd be able to install CD-ROM drivers off of a CD-ROM if that were the case.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

What kind of computer? I know people with Dells and Gateways that have their hardware drivers come on a separate CD.....though once again that would still be complicated by the fact that your cd-drive isn't being detected.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
