But it should still have the hologram license sticker on the bottom.

Contains the version of OS, home, office, pro plus the activation key.

Just need the disc that matches the OS version.

For linux just d/l the distribution and burn to a disc or put on thumbdrive.

If you use thumbdrive go into BIOS on boot and make sure thumbdrive/usb is set as a boot option and you can even set it as first boot device and switch back to CD after install is complete.
