First step is to very carefully check that all cables and expansion cards are securely seated. That goes for RAM too. Do you get past the BIOS screen?
A blue screen generally means that a Windows error has occurred, strange seeing that you are trying to install Windows from a CD. Are you sure that in the BIOS you have set it to boot from a CD BEFORE any HDD?
