I'm trying to boot from a CD-ROM, but after configuring the BIOS to set the first boot device as the CD-ROM, the CD starts spinning when it is being booted, but nothing happens from there. In the CD is a thing called dban, program/software thing that wipes HDD.

Go into your bios:

Under the security tab, disable secure boot

Go to advanced tab, select system configuration
Enable csm

Save settings and reboot

Turns out I had a faulty disk, found out by getting another similar disk and burning the same things.

Go into your bios:

Under the security tab, disable secure boot

Go to advanced tab, select system configuration
Enable csm

Save settings and reboot
Click to expand...

Will be solution. Hopefully your solution will some others with same problems as me.
