That screen only stays there for a second or two.
I tried just repetidly pressing f12 when I restarted it and it did nothing.
Aslo hitting the "d" key does nothing

What kind of computer?

When booting the first screen where it says your computer mfr (like dell, hp, etc) there you can hit f-12. failing that when booting you can try hitting the "d" key it will sometimes force the boot from dvd.

And I changed all three of them to boot from cd and it said something was wrong with the disc.

Thats possible. where did you get the iso? what did you use to burn it? did you burn the files and folders, or the single iso file?

You might want to burn it again. If you want you can check the hash'es to make sure your file and the source are exactly the same.
