Hello John

No I think, just change the boot priority in your bios to boot from cd rom drive first.. Then pop in the cd and restart....

and live CD should boot up...

To do what Bhavani said you enter setup on the screen you see when you turn on your computer,
To do this depends on manufacturers
most of the time its done with either (esc)(f10)(f12)or the (del) keys on your keyboard.

Hope this clarifies it slightly more for you.
