Dell Dc Xp

Why can't I boot from cd?
Im trying to format my dell pc because its full of viruses. im trying to boot from the cd that came with it to reinstall windows xp home edition. i changed the boot sequence to the dc drive and when i try it it only says press F1 to retry, f2 for bios or something like that. Please help.
On most Dells, when you first turn on the machine, start tapping the F12 key. This gets you to the built-in One Time Boot Menu, which allows you to select your target start-up device.
Also, do yourself a big favour:
Reset your BIOS to the default settings, because that error message tells me it's not detecting one of your drives.
Easiest way is this: when you turn it on, tap F2 to enter setup. Hold the ALT key, then press the F key. Let go of the keys as soon as you hear it beep. It may beep once, or several times. When it stops beeping, save and exit the BIOS, then let it just do its thing for a moment: It will attempt to re-detect your optical drive and your hard drive.
