    Default question about a laptop

    hi guys, ive been offered a laptop for £10 (it would just be a laptop for the other half to use) but it has a Faulty DVD Drive And Windows needs reinstalling.... i have windows 7 with WAT removed so i can install the windows no problems but its on disk so how would i install it if the dvd drive dont work???
    i thought about an external disk drive or booting from a different hard drive or plugging the broken laptop into a working laptop, but if the laptop dont have windows would it detect a external source for it to boot from???

    Could do a usb install by making a windows 7 bootable usb (google is your friend), and go into boot options and load from usb
