Toshiba Satellite Pro 4320 - How do I get into the BIOS?!

Anyone know how I get access to the BIOS on this Laptop? (Toshiba Satellite Pro 4300 Series - Model 4320).

It says "Press F2 to access Boot Selection Menu". When I go into this, it tells me to press "[C]" to boot from the CD-ROM, and [F] from the Floppy Drive etc., but nothing happens when I press these buttons.

I need to boot from the CD-ROM so I either need to get into the BIOS or get this Boot Selection Menu to start working. Has anyone got any clues? I've tried DEL and all the 'F' Buttons.

P.S. Holding F12 allows for a BIOS Flash Upgrade. This is not useful as this Laptop has no updated BIOSs for download.
 
Well I got into the BIOS and changed the Boot Order to CD->FDD->HDD.

Now, when it boots it freezes while constantly reading from the CD...which I know is fine since it works in another PC.

Any ideas?
 
OK well the CD cannot be read on the Laptop in Windows either so this doesn't seem to be a problem with the Boot Sequence...sorry about that.
