    I have been trying to bring up the boot menu of my new pc. Its an intel core 2 duo system. My last system was an AMD and the boot menu was easily accessable by pressing F12. I have tried doing this but the pc starts as normal. Can anyone help??? Thanks in advance

    Not all PC's have a Boot Menu.
    Most use the BIOS to set the Boot Order.

    Check the Documentation that came with your PC, for info on how the enter BIOS and change your Boot Order.

    Good Luck. :)

    Try hitting the delete button, or F2 while bootup. At the very least you should get to the bios menu..set it there for cd first in boot order..:D:D
