Make sure the BIOS is set to boot from the CD or Floppy drive. On most newer Dells you can press the F12 key to change the boot drive selection during POST. If it still won't read from a bootable CD or Floppy then you may have a problem with the drives, BIOS, or motherboard. Make sure any removable or hot-swapable drives are seated properly in the slots.
