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.
