Default Need help installing Puppy Linux on old computer.

I'm trying to install Puppy Linux 4.2 on a 9 year old computer using a live cd. For some reason my bios doesn't have a one time boot menu(the screen where you select what to boot from instead of the bios selecting it for you). So how do I install Puppy if I can't install it that way. Can I install it after I boot into Windows. Could I install it at boot up without manually selecting it. there are no problems with the cd itself, I checked it by using the live cd on my laptop.
