Hi
I want to boot up to the XP CD in my Inspiron 8600. There is just a
splash screen and no POST and the usual keys don't interrupt the boot
up to enter the BIOS. Any hints, please?

The quickboot feature needs to be bypassed in order to enter
the BIOS setup. There is an assigned key --- can't remember
but something like F2 or F12. When starting the laptop, depress
the appropriate key and it should interrupt the quickboot.
