I have downloaded Knoppix to install on a new PC, but when I turn the PC on it returns an error.

Boot from ATAPI CD-ROM: Failure...

DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER

 

When I press enter, the following error re-appears.

DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER

 

At present I am unable to load anything up.

 

Hope someone can help.

you are not using a bootable cd. or if you want to boot from the hard drive make sure there is no disk in your cd rom or change the bios so it boots from the hard drive.

that is if you have an operating system on the hard drive.
