I tried to format my Sony waio laptop using a bootable CD, after changing the BIOS setting accordingly but the laptop didnt get boot from that CD. Could anyone please help ?

Sony 'VAIO'

Which bootable CD are you using?

Assuming it's a Windows install CD, try repeatedly pressing a key on the keyboard (space bar) after you press the power button, but before windows loads.

Windows CDs prompt with: "Press any key to boot from the CDROM" but you might not be on the screen long enough to catch.
