I want to boot from CD and need to reconfigure bios to startup from CD. When I restart it goes straight to Windows login. I’ve tried pressing F1, F2 and F10 separately before windows login appears but it doesn’t matter.

Bios Prompt Not Appearing On Startup

HP Compaq DC 5000 You have to hit the key way before the Windows start screen. Usually in the first few seconds after startup. Try ESC to see screen. I can’t read all the choices before it disappears. Bad eyes, small type. ESC, F10, F2, F12 I think.

It does it make it difficult to help you as we have to look around for information to help you which in many cases you could do yourself. Google is your friend in this regard.
