Make sure you have your pc set to boot from CDROM and you can do the setup from there. If you have a cd that won't boot from CDROM you'll have to make a boot floppy using the utilities on the disc. The DOS utility rawrite is on the CD and will make a boot floppy. The instructions are in the box and on the CD (I think) for which boot image to use if you need a floppy.
