A bootable CD has an operating sytem (usually a form of Linux or Windows) copied to the CD starting at track 0 on the CD. If your computer has a bios that defines one of your CD drives in the power on/restart boot sequence, you can boot your system from such a CD. Bootable CDs are used by developers/software companies to install Windows and Linux onto your computer's hard drive. Bootable CDs are also used by some anti-virus products to allow a "for sure" clean scan capability on a possibly infected system.
Bootable CDs are activated by placing the CD in the CD drive, powering the computer down, a then powering the computer back on (cold boot).
The power on boot usually follows a sequence of 1) check floppy drive for bootable disk, 2) check CD drive for bootable CD, and then 3) boot from designated hard drive.

If your system isn't booting from any bootable CD, first check the BIOS/UEFI settings to ensure that the CD/DVD drive is set as the primary boot device. If it is, inspect the CD for scratches or damage and try using a different bootable CD or USB drive to rule out media issues. Additionally, ensure that the CD drive is functioning properly by testing it with another computer or bootable media. If problems persist, consider updating the BIOS or checking for hardware issues with the CD drive or connections.
