1) get into the BIOS
--When the laptop first starts up you will see "Hit Del to enter setup" or some variation.
2) find the BIOS setting to boot from CD
--Boot order or some such. Make D (or whatever your CD drive letter is) the first boot option
3) save BIOS and exit
--Navigate the BIOS to save changes and exit
4) insert Windows OS CD
5) foot system and hit any key to boot from CD when requested
6) follow on-sceen instuctions to format your HD and install a fresh version on Windows

Clear enough?
