How to create your own installation DVD, Install Windows, install the device drivers, install the Windows Updates, Activation and Backup your drive.
1) Download the appropriate Windows 7 .ISO file which includes Service Pack 1
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium is a complete operating system with better security and improved performance to fulfill the basic needs. This free download of Home Premium is the complete standalone ISO Image installer for genuine OEM version for both 32bit and 64bit architecture. The “Windows 10” option in the Edition menu will include Home and Pro versions, so if you also choose Both in the Architecture menu you’ll get an all in one ISO image with 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 10 Home and Pro on the same disk.
(Note: must match what your product key version is for)
How to find out if I have a 32 or 64Bit version of Windows installed on my computer:

(The default download location is: C:UsersUser account nameDownloads)
b) Remove all check marks from the list of HashCalc options except for SHA1.
c) Click the ‘Calculate’ button and wait for the SHA1 string of letters and number to be displayed.
3) Next use ImgBurn (or Gear ISO) to create a bootable DVD.

Note: Always use high quality DVD+R media and the slowest burn speed (4x or 6x) if offered a choice.

Optional software to create a Bootable Windows 7 DVD
Keyless Install
How to perform a 'Keyless Install' of Windows:
Boot from the Windows 7 DVD disc or USB flash drive you created and start the installation process.
Note: If this message pops up, read the following:
'A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing' or 'A media driver your computer needs is missing'
This issue occurs for one of the following reasons:
•The installation DVD is removed during the setup process.
•A low-quality DVD was used to create the installation DVD.
•The speed at which the installation DVD was burned was too fast.
•The DVD drive cannot read the media.
•The ISO file is corrupted.
After you enter user name and password you will be asked to:
'Type your Windows product key', do not enter a key.
Also located just below the box where you would enter the key is a box with a check mark
to 'Automatically activate Windows when I am online', remove the check mark and click 'Next'.
You will now have a 30 day grace period in which to activate Windows.
During the grace period you can install your device drivers,
run Windows Updates and resolve any other problems or issues.
Once you are satisfied everything is functioning properly, then activate Windows.
