download the windows version you need here to make an iso
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7
be sure to disable the secure boot option in the bios
if you don't have a DVD drive, use an external drive, or make a bootable usb stick
i can't give precise details - since you did not post the model

Hey Nobus,
Sounds good. My Dell model is Dell Inspiron 15 3000 Series. Intel core i3 processor, 4 GB RAM, 2Ghz, ubuntu loaded.
Also how can I make bootable USB stick. I am already getting Windows 7 ISO file.

I could straight away install Windows 7 using Ubuntu with Virtual Machine available in Ubuntu Software Store.
Works just fine.

Once you have that, the install is pretty easy.
