How to boot your PC from a CD?

I bought one of these Knoppix CDs so that I could run Linux without installing it on my computer. I have never used Linux before and thought this would be an easy way to see what it is like. The only thing is, I can't figure out how to boot my computer from a CD.

The help file on the disc only says:

How do I run Knoppix?
In order to start the CD, first adjust the boot list in the BIOS Setup of your computer to boot from CD (before the hard drive). Put the CD in and restart the computer.


Can anyone share how to adjust this boot list or can point me to a good site that explains how?

Here is a site about the Knoppix CD:
