Hello shankly769, welcome to Seven Forums!
Have a look at this tutorial at the link below to see if you are setting it correctly to boot from a disk and be sure to post back with any further questions you may have and to keep us informed.
How To Change the Drive Boot Priority in BIOS
Windows 7 is on a DVD, not a CD. Use a DVD drive.
Are you getting the prompt to Press Any Key to Boot DVD? What happens if you do?
Where did you get Win7? Did you burn the DVD yourself? How?
yes it is in the cd boot setup
Perhaps if you burn another at 4x speed and let the program do a verify before it finishes, use this program at the link below, it never fails.
ImgBurn Free ISO Burning Software
Where did you get original DVD which won't boot? Are you using its extracted ISO to burn the DVD? Extract again using Imgburn, burn at 4x as stated.
If this fails, write the ISO to flash stick using UltraISO trial: On File tab open ISO, on Disk tab Write Disk Image, Format, Write. Boot under USB or HD's on one-time BIOS Boot Menu.
