Please have a look at <http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/#record-windows> on how 
to write the .iso to CD-R.

To boot from the CD, just put it in the drive when the computer starts up. 
The documentation on the CD should cover the rest of the installation, it
should also be available on
<http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/installmanual>. But the installation
of Debian is not as easy as that of other Linux distributions - if you're a
first-time Linux user, try to find a more knowledgeable person to help you.

Cheers,

  Richard
