Trying to boot from a windows xp cd and it just sits there saying "No Emulation".
Boots ok from win 98 cd. Anyone any ideas?

The thoughts that come to mind are:

You have a none-supported hard drive or memory controller on your system.

Your system does not meet the minimum requirements for XP. (most likely, you need more RAM) (if you have on-board AGP video, you need at least 16MB more than the XP minimum.)

You can also try downloading the file from Microsoft to create the XP floppy disk boot set.

Provide more details on your system configuration, and we may be able to provide a better answer.
