Sony uses the F2 key. Tap it repeatedly every second as the computer boots up. Enter BIOS setup and set DVD drive to boot first like this: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/tipstr.../bootcddvd.htm

Since you had Ubuntu on the HD you need to wipe the HD using this: SSD / HDD : Optimize for Windows Reinstallation

All Linux code must be deleted using the CLEAN ALL command.As you have had linux on the HD you need do a Clean all & full format.

Do a full clean & full format in command prompt.
1) Boot DVD & Press Shift+F10 (for command prompt)
DISKPART : At PC Startup
2) Boot DVD, & Command Prompt at Startup
(for command prompt)

Type in command line
DISKPART
LIST DISK
SELECT DISK # (win HD)
CLEAN ALL
CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY
SELECT PARTITION 1
ACTIVE
FORMAT fs=NTFS
ASSIGN
EXIT
EXIT
