The key didn't give me the error, it was after that, I don't know what happened, I am having trouble with the cd/dvd drive since i got this laptop so i have ordered a usb flash, I think Britec is right about the Fresh install but I can't find a tutorial for beginners on youtube, I can find plenty for the people that are already technical but not one for learners, I don't know about Bios or booting, I don't seem to be the only one who needs a beginners guide.

Thank you Britec I have just done it again following one of the youtube videos, I insert the key and that is fine then it says, (Something Happened....Setup has failed to determine supported install choices) then stops, I know i am missing something but i don't know what.

What is the manufacturer and model of your computer? You may need to disable secure and switch UEFI to MBR (Legacy Boot Mode)

Please watch the video I provided in my last post created by Brian on how to disable secure boot. Also Watch this video on how to Change to UEFI to Legacy Boot Mode on a acer:
