Hello,
I have a Samsung laptop running Vista 32-bit and I want to boot it from a CD, but I'm having trouble doing so. I hope to get some help as I've done this operation on other PCs without any issues.
Here's what I'm doing: I start it up, press F2, go to the boot menu, select AHCI CD: P1..... which corresponds to the CD ROM drive, I'm pretty sure about that. I click F10 to save and exit, and when I restart the PC, it asks the question for 5 seconds:
Boot from ACHI CDROM?
Then it continues booting normally into Vista, and that's my problem grrrrr. I want it to boot from the CD ROM, particularly since I am migrating to Seven.
No matter how much I try with any random CD ROM, it's as if it doesn't even recognize it, not even Super Grub Disk for testing. It just goes back to the normal boot.
Is there a specific key to force it to boot from there at the question?
Thank you for all the help!

The best way to get a response would be to start your own thread instead of exploiting those of others; it messes up the follow-up on replies!
Best regards.
