You'll need to boot from the disc. Leave the CD-ROM in the drive as you reset the computer. It is possible that is all you have to do.
If it does not boot to the disc automatically, keep an eye on the screen during the first screen that comes on when you turn the computer on. You're looking for an indicator of which button you need to press to select the boot device--on the Dell computers I use at work, it's F12--hit the button and you will be presented with a list of devices, choose your disc drive.
If there is no option to select the boot device, you will need to go into your BIOS setup and set the computer's boot order so that your disc drive is check for a boot sector before your hard disk.
I'm sorry I can't be more specific, the specifics vary depending on your motherboard.
Best of luck! Let us know how you fare.
