Can someone please tell me what key do you press with shift to get to the screen that allows you to re-install windows with the reinstallation cd

You will hopefully see a prompt to 'press any key to boot from CD' or similar. If not,

2. Restart again, and as soon as the system completes shut down/begins restart, begin pressing the 'Delete' key about once per second, until you see the BIOS menu. Here, you will have to find the "Boot" controls or similar, and configure your computer to boot from CD drive.
