Boot from CD when starting up issue

[TowerGuru]

Howsit guys, ive noticed something strange happening on my pc lately. So i sometimes reboot my pc with my iPod still plugged in and the bios gets stuck on boot from CD...when i unplug iPod it carries on booting fine. Thats not the issue however, its started doing the same thing if my flash drive is plugged in- it never used to do that before? Again removing the flash drive makes it carry on booting. . . Its slightly annoying. Anyone know whats up? Running XP Pro SP3

I also have this problem sometimes. Only happens once in a while though.

Happened to myself once or twice as well.

In the bootup menu (BIOS settings) look for a setting which says "boot from other device" and disable it. That should fix your problem.

Yeah, doesn't have anything to do with your service pack but rather bios. Definitely way to go.

Your mobo can obviously boot from a USB device, and is painstakingly scanning your iPod on boot to see if there's boot code on it.
