Can't boot from DVD

Hello,

I own a Vostro 1510 and I am trying to install a new OS (Windows 7 beta if that matter) from a DVD.

When I try to insert the disc into my device (Built-in, Optiarc DVD+-RW AD-7640A, Farmwork: JD05) and it doesn't load. It is just starting to whistle.

I know the DVD is ok because I used it on another computer.

I did a BIOs update to throw the DELL support site but still no luck.

Is there any other thing that I can do to solove this problam?

    The HDD is in the first place but I am using the boot menu.

    P.S.: I am currently using Windows XP and cant explore the DVD. The drive makes noises like it can't load the DVD.
