You need the windows disk. You can download and make your own disk if you have a valid key.

Go here

Yes, about the not booting from the CD/DVD disk drive. Make a Microknoppix Flash Boot USB and you can recover out of the Hardware not functional issue. Do not install Microknoppix on any computer system, Boot it from the USB Stick, F12 for boot menu at startup.
You should have used VirtualBox for the Steam OS install as its stiil in testing, last time looked.

If you have no Windows disk whatsoever, go ask a friend to download Windows in his PC.
