Re: change to boot from CD-Rom?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Go to the machine's manual.

There will be a key or keys (maybe DEL, or F8, or CTL-B etc etc) to press within a few seconds after powering the machine up or rebooting. There may also be a message on the screen at that time (just for a second or two) that says "PRESS THE [?] KEY TO ENTER BIOS" or something similar. This varies by motherboard. If the machine is a name-brand or you know the mainboard product name try Googling or phoning for tech support. Googling can also get you a list of the most common BIOS-access keys.

 I know this should be easy ...its just slipping my mind.

How do I change my PC's boot sequence to start with the CD-ROM?
