Default failure to boot from a cd

I am attempting to do a repair installation of xp pro. It has been
preloaded on my pc by IBM. In order to do this task I must reboot from an
xp pro disk, which I just happen to have. I have changed the BIOS sequence
to boot from a cd. However, it totally bypasses the cd and Windows opens.
I get no message to press any key. Any suggestions?
