    Where did you get "the windows 7 disc" ?
    Maybe it is a bad disc ?
    Is your BIOS setup to boot from the optical disc as the first device ?

    This tutorial has everything needed to reinstall Windows including where to get the latest Windows installation ISO and how to burn it to DVD.

    You do need a valid genuine readable COA key for your licensed version.

    Is this an OEM PC such as HP, Dell, Gateway, Lenovo, ... , or a custom/home built ?
    Did your PC come with Ultimate pre-installed ?

    Hi Pbmaster2k89,

    It could be an issue with the disc or the drive. You can create a USB drive as well for reinstalling windows.

    Check this link for creating a bootable pen drive:

    Kindly update your system specs here by following this.

    Keep us posted with the results so we can advise you further.
