Ok. First off I hope I didn't post this in the wrong area, and I have spent some time searching and couldn't yet find an answer to my questions. If I posted this in the wrong area or there is an answer already to my post please direct me to it.

Ok. I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop and want to run Kubuntu on it. A friend from work gave me a boot disc of Kubuntu 10.8 KDE4 (Live). I have tried running the disc but when my comp reboots it won't boot from CD. I have tried going into f2, f8 and f10 and can't seem to find my way. I am a bit green on a lot of the inner working of a computer so please be patient with me lol. Anyhow, can anyone help me get my comp to reboot from the cd so I may give this kubuntu experience a try.
Also, if I transfer my comp to kubuntu is there any risk of losing any of my hardware (webcam, dvd burner, etc) and is there any chance I won't be able to retrieve my backed up files from my Hammer Morespace once I make the switch.
Well, I certainly hope someone can help me with this. You can always email me at sep.h13@gmail.com as well if you would like.
Thanks for your time
