When your computer begins to POST look carefully and it should tell you a button to press to access the BIOS. It usually calls it 'SETUP'

The button will likely be [Del] although it could be [Ins] or [F1].
One into the bios look for the section that contains the boot order and set CDROM to the primary boot device.
You may want to set it up as follow if you ever boot floppies:
1) CD-ROM
2) Floppy
3) IDE-0 (it may say HDD)
