Insert your Windows Disc

you will want to start your PC. as it begins booting. rapidly press you boot menu key. (most PCs use F8) continue pressing it until the menu pops up, and select your CD Drive to boot from.

It will boot from the windows CD, and you will get on screen menus to show you the rest of the steps.

If F8 was not working, then move to F9, F10, F11, F12, and Delete are the other keys PCs like to use to boot menus.

After Installing the operating as suggest by earlier comment, need to connect with internet to install all drivers either ethernet port back on your computer or use the driver cd that you already got from manufacture, that will allow you to work your wireless .
