If you got the restore CD use that. Otherwise you'll need to purchase a new copy of Windows to get an install CD. The license key on the sticker will only be good for the OEM version of whatever flavor of Windows came on it (starter, pro, etc). I'm not sure if these Pavillions have a restore partition. If so you could restore from that during bootup.
If you're unfamiliar with installing Windows I recommend having a tech do it for you.
