Normally, when booting up, you hit the delete key to get into the BIOS. It will usually say somewhere on the screen when you are booting.

Then you need to go to the Standard settings and make sure it is seeing the CDROM.

Possible problems include backwards ribbon cables, and not having the drives set up properly with regard to master/slave settings.

If you haven't changed anything, then the cdrom might have just died.

Good Luck,
