Since you have the DVD' Follow the instructions below.
- Turn on your PC so that Windows starts normally, insert the DVD or USB flash drive, and then shut down your PC.
- Restart your PC, and then press any key to boot from the DVD or USB flash drive.If you restart your PC and your current version of Windows starts, you might have to open a boot menu or change the boot order in your PC's BIOS or UEFI settings so that your PC boots from the media. To open a boot menu or change the boot order, you'll typically need to press a combination of keys (such as F2, F12, Delete, Esc, etc.) immediately after you turn on your PC. For instructions on changing the boot order for your PC, check the documentation that came with your PC or go to the manufacturer's website.If your current version of Windows still starts, try again by waiting until Windows asks you to sign in, shutdown completely, and then restart your PC again.
- On the Install Windows page, enter your language and other preferences, and then tap or click Next.
