You need to change your bios to boot from CD and not IDE0 or FDD or whatever it is set to as first (or primary) boot device. This is normally found under the advanced boot options in you bios if it is an Award bios. Normally you press "Delete" to enter the bios or if you have a different bios it might be F2 (Epox Motherboards use Phoenix bios on some models so you need to press F2)
