Did you actually get Windows installed to the point where you could actually
use it or are you still trying to install Windows? If you're still trying to
install Windows then you need to take the Windows install disk out of the
cd-rom before your computer restarts. Otherwise your computer will keep
booting from the cd and will keep going back to the install routine. You'll
have to insert the cd again to complete the installation.
