I've tried to figure that out too, but its a compaq laptop im trying to put it on, and it wont let me get into the bios

Compaq Laptop? Try pressing F10. I remember there being a blinking block on some corner of the LCD, when you see that, hit F10 really hard. It should load the BIOS. Of course, this was on a really old Compaq Armada, but from what I've seen after that, it might still be F10.

Jeremy - You'll have to change your bios settings to allow for a boot from
cd-rom. Normally when you powerup your system, you should be able to hit
<del> or <f2> to get into the bios settings. From there, there should be
boot options. If your hard drive is set to boot first, then it won't ever
try the cdrom drive because it boots every time into rh7.
