Sure thing.... Ok so most likely your computer is not setup to try to
boot from the CD.... Try this when the computer 1st starts (you might 
have to be quick so be ready) go into the "bios setup" by typing the 
"delete", "f1", "f2", "f10" or "f12" keys (or some other key it tells you to
enter "setup")..... Once in the "bios setup"  screens look for something 
like "boot order sequence"  You'll want to choose the option that reads
something like this "CDROM, C, A".... You atleast need CDROM 1st and 'C' in 
the list.... Read how to change the values! :-)  The example above tells the 
machine to 1st look for a boot CD, then the 'C' drive and finally the 'A' 
drive (floppy)....  You'll need to save these changes.... Every "bios setup" 
screen on every computer looks a little different.... So please READ! :-)  
After you save the computer will most likely reboot on it's own.... If not 
reboot....  If this operation is done correctly.... When the machine boots 
the CDROM drive light in the front will light before you see the Windoze start 
up or anything like that.... If you now have the Iceberg CD in and start the
computer you should see the Iceberg menu.... If you still have problems 
search google.com for "bios setup boot cd howto" no quotes and do some more
reading.... :-)

WARNING:  Changing the boot order and leaving 'C' out could cause your machine
to NOT START from the hard drive @ all.... If this happens.... Relax.... Go 
back into the "bios setup" and restore the original value(s) you changed.
