Solution
Insert the Windows 7 dvd in the dvd drive, start the computer, press F2 for the boot menu, select the DVD drive and install Windows 7 by following the instructions on the screen. It's not rocket science.

If you don't have a hard drive that contains an OS in the system anymore, you will just have to insert a Windows CD/DVD and install it. During the installation you will get the option to make multiple partitions.

You want to install Windows 7 without using a CD for it? You need something to install it from. Either a DVD or usb flash drive.

If you can enter your boot menu by pressing F2, press it with the DVD in and choose your dvd drive as the boot device.
