Most of the modern PC systems support boot from CD-ROM or DVD. You'll need a bootable cd to take advantage of this feature tho. Bootable CDs can be created by a variety of cd burning programs, such as Easy CD Pro or Nero Burner.

You can boot with CD Rom just like you boot with the floppy ...but you have to make sure that CD Rom is your first bootable device in the Bios ..If first boot device can be set as CD Rom in the bios then you should be able to boot from a bootable CD
eg the win_me installation CD .

Good Luck

Answer number 2 is corect. You have to change the bios to boot to the cd rom first so it can read your bootable CD.
