You can use a program like IMGBurn to make an .iso image from the CD.

This looks too complicated, I guess I will just use the drive on my other pc, but just temporally because it has no space to fit it in... :unsure:

you can use a cell phone or any hard drive big enough for windows 10 via usb wire and if you cant do that you can wireless transfer it but imo windows 7 64 bit pro is the deal to go with , windows 10 needs more crash and error testing b4 it will be worth while

Download a windows 10 .iso -> Download microsoft usb tool -> Mount .ISO to a usb drive -> restart pc -> Boot from usb -> install windows

Use the windows update to install it.

PS if you use daz loader to activate windows 7 the only way to get windows 10 for free is via the windows updates.
