The main difference between installing Windows and installing any other program is that the Windows CD is a bootable CD.
First, MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP YOUR DATA TO ANOTHER LOCATION - THIS WILL REFORMAT YOUR C DRIVE AND ALL DATA AND PROGRAMS WILL BE LOST!
You will need to make sure that your computer can boot from a CD. When you first turn on your computer you will see a message like "Press DEL to Enter Setup". This is the BIOS setup menu and once in the setup menu you should be able to find an option for "Boot Order". You need to change this so the CD drive is first in the boot order. There may be instructions in your motherboard or computer manual or they may be online if you need more help.
Once your CD drive is first in the boot order, put in the Windows CD, turn off your computer, turn it back on, press any key when you see "Press any key to boot from CD" and then follow the Windows install instructions.
Good Luck
