Hi all,

I'm trying to boot my computer from the CD-ROM.  I have an Abit BH6
motherboard and a Hi-Val 32X CDROM (not sure the model right off).  I set
the CMOS to boot - CDROM, C, A but when I restart the computer it boots
from C:.

Is it necessary to have a CDROM specially designed for this purpose of
should any CD-ROM work so long as the feature is supported in the BIOS?

TIA,

Bill Nussbaumer
