Go into your bios and go to the boot tab. Select to only boot off your CD-drive. Your bios is accessible on startup by pressing the delete key or the F2 key usually. If it lists a different key, press that.

go to the bios at boot up hit whatever key it shows to enter setup then change the boot order to boot from the d first save the settings and when it boots it should say hit any key to boot from the cd just hit ant key and it should boot from your cd
