Reconfigure your BIOS to boot from CD instead of the HDD.

i do that but theres no "priority" shit.
I see, Normal, bootlog, safe mode, and step by step confirmation.
I did step by step, it just says bunch of stuff followed by "{Y/N}"
I am still lost. can you explian further how to change priorities

yeah that doesn't help. the kind of bios your running is determined by what motherboard you ahve. we have no idea what your bios looks like.
