You need to change the boot order, its fucking up because windows is missing that file (or the file is just fucked) so you need to boot the cd before it goes hunting in the hard disk for the os.
either F2 or F8 on your key board like you would to get safe mode (but dont press the safe mode button) and then it'll give you access to the boot order, change so its from the cd drive first.
If you can get into BIOS you can change it there as well mate.
give it a try and post it up mate.
