Disk Boot Failure, Insert System Disk And Press Enter

I RECENTLY BROUGHT VSTA ULTIMATE AND TRIED INSTALLING IT ONTO MY PC. IT WENT THROUGH THE INSTALLATION PROCESS COMPLETLY AND SUCESSFULLY BUT AFTER RESTARTING THE PC IT SAYS DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESSS ENTER. AFTER PLACING THE DISK BACK IN THE OS BOOTS UP LIKE NORMAL.

IT SEEMS LIKE THE OS NEEDS THE CD IN THE DRIVE TO BOOT UP. IS THERE ANYWAY THAT I CAN BOOT IT UP FROM THE HARD DRIVE JUST LIKE HOW MY XP PRO USED TO BOOT UP?

ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED

Go back into your BIOS (SETUP) and change the boot order to Hard Drive as the 1st device.
