Chances are - you burned the iso file to the rom and not burned using the
ISO. I would check what your doing when you burn.

hello,
i am having problems installing 5.3 on my laptop. it is an hp
pavillion ze5700. i am currently using windows xp home, and have
downloaded the 5.3 release disk1 iso image to my hard drive. i have
tried putting it on several cd's to boot from and have successfully
made all of them (to the best of my knowlege). when i boot up though i
get nothing but a blinking cursor . although on the disk that i made
as a hardrive emulation i get a message that says "no operating system
installed".
as a note, i have a comercial disk that has 5.0 on it and it boots,
but dosnt make it to the sysinstall menu.
if you want more info on the 5.0 boot messages i will try to get them
for you.
i heard a rumor that you are located in bolder colorado and since i am
in colorado springs i can drive up if nessasary to get my macine
running.

anyway i can.
thanks for your time,
issac lander
