1) Boot up PC, and press whichever key it tells you is to enter BIOS (Try holding and double tapping if single tap doesn't work)
2) Navigate to something like Boot Order, or Boot Priority Selection, or something similar
3) Alter settings so that the CD Drive comes before the Hard Drive
4) Place the installation disk in the tray
5) Reboot
