Need help with Dell laptop

Just got one, trying to format it but the bios is set to read from the HD then the cdrom...Im trying to get it to boot up from the cdrom (windows)

Any of you know how to get into the bios before it boots up so I can change this and format it?

when you see the Dell screen on bootup that has the BIOS version written on it, you hit F11 or F12
