Hi, you may need to either change the boot order or enable booting from the CD drive. You can find instructions for doing so on eHow:

http://www.ehow.com/how_6848473_do-options-compaq-evo-d510_.html

If it still won't work after that, check the post at the bottom of this forum for a possible solution by enabling "Boot from removable media":
