You can run bootable disks by changing the primary boot device to that particular device (In ur case CD/DVD drive). You can do so by going to the BIOS settings by pressing DEL key (most u'll have 2 keep on tapping it continuously when u just turn the computer on). There on searching, you can find the boot sequence. Here you can change it.....

Hope my solution works..
