ok i know this is a noob question but oh well.ok i have it burned to a cd and im possitive it works because i tryed it on 2 of my friends computer a desktop and a laptop. on the laptop it booted up automatically and on the desktop we pressed F12 the chose to boot up from a cd and it ran.but when i try those things on my computer it boots up windows automaticly. so what do i change and where to make the knoppix cd boot up first. oh and im running windows xp home edition sp2 if that matters

You need to change the order of booting devices in BIOS. Press DEL when the computer is starting and put CDROM in front of HDD in the boot priority menu. Then save and you should be allright.
