If you've got the right boot order set in your BIOS, are you sure you burnt Mandrake as an image and not just a data CD?

yah he would have to burn iso, not burn the iso file to a cd. also make sure the md5 of the iso is correct if you know what i'm saying. also some peoples cd burners have an option that say, make this cd bootable. check no because the iso will handle that.
