RE: trying to install arch linux
you need to configure your bios for it to load the cd drive before the hard disk. try pressing "delete" when your system boots up (that's usually the key to use, it might be different)

Try repeatedly pressing F12 as the bios loads. A menu of boot choices should appear.

You should then get something like the "boot order". Simply put your cd rom first, then your hard disk.
