I have already partitioned my hard drive to accept the new OS, and I downloaded the “alpha” version of Debian and burned it to a DVD-RW, then I restarted my computer and set the BIOS to boot from the CD/DVD drive, but the computer still started Windows even though I could see it started reading the DVD drive, then it just loaded Windows as normal. Then I downloaded the “AMD” version of Debian and burned it to a DVD. When I restarted my computer, the DVD drive was obviously reading but then Windows loaded as normal.
