    The only key that I know is F2 but you have to be quick try pressing the key as soon as you start the notebook (press, release, over and over) this should put the notebook into the BIOS , where you can select the BOOT tab and then select the DVD ROM as first boot device. In my BIOS it is marked as IDE CD: TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633C-(
