Changing Boot orderClosed

Question

Hello,

guys can anyone help, I have an HP laptop (very old) it had XP installed and it crashed for whatever reason and now I want to re install Windows XP but.. when I click ESC during boot up it shows the boot order as follows 1. Hard Drive, 2 Floopy Disk, 3 CD/DVD Rom and at the bottom it shows ENTER SETUP, when I select ENTER SETUP and press enter it shows ENTER PASSWORD and I don't know what is the password, now my problem is how do I change this boot order? I want to change it so that it first BOOTS from CD/DVD rom, I have tried to use the SPACE BAR, ARROWS UP/DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT,
F1 to F9, NUMBERS etc but it does not change. Any suggestions will be highly welcome. thanks all in advance.
