Andrew,

A couple of things that may be useful...

1. Is there an OS currently installed on the system? If so, can you mount cd's while the system is up?

2. Is your system set to try and boot from cdrom first?

3. Can you get another system to boot from the media that you are using? (Ruling out a bad cdrom).

4. Do you get any error messages on the screen?

Please post your results.

Regards,
Eric
