The CD image that is on the Openoffice.org site is one that
will start automatically when you close you disk drive.
That assumes that you did not turn that option off on
you computer. The CD Image will work with Windows,
Mac, and Linux, so the site tells me. (once you burn the
image file to a CD yourself)
Is this the CD you downloaded? Or is it from some other
source?
If your CD does not autorun, then got to L:\windows\setup.exe,
with you subisituting "L" for you cdrom drive. That is for the
CD image file that you can find on the OOo web site.
Of course you could always download the most up-to-date
file(s) from the web site.
That is all I can help you with, I think.

I haven't installed from a CD, but generally there should be an installer
file, which you double click on to start the installation process. Did
you do that? When the installation is complete, there should be an
OpenOffice folder & icons in your Start menu.
