My professional opinion (yeah, I get paid for this) is that the machine is not loading/recognizing the keyboard in time for you to press a key. You need to get into startup/BIOS.
Try holding down the key for BIOS the instant you hit the power button, and hold it down. If you don't know which key it is, try F2 - if that isn't it, power down and try F10, then F11, then F12 (powering down in-between). It's probably F2.
Once in BIOS you need to change the boot order of the drives, putting the CD/DVD drive first.
Good luck.
