You need a Windows Repair or Installation disk. And for booting from CD/USB you should change the boot order in your BIOS> – Braiam Oct 29 '13 at 04:27

You will need to use the BIOS on the laptop to change the boot order. Often you can press a key (listed during boot, F12?) to enable a one time boot option, select USB or CD.
