Default Upgrading to Windows XP

I have an older WIN2000 machine. I do not have the password to log onto the
machine and can not get it.

I need to upgrade it to WINXP. I have the WINXP CD and am trying to boot
from there so I can format the hard drive and intall. However when I attempt
to boot from the CD it stops at "Boot from ATAPI CD-ROM : ".

Any and all suggestions on how to get past this would be appreciated.

Thank you,
