As a new iMac hasn't got the SuperDrive, you have to buy the Apple USB SuperDrive or another external optical drive to install Windows on your computer. If you need help, print this PDF > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf

Also, if you have a Windows .iso file, you can use it and burn it into a USB drive. To do this, open Boot Camp Assistant and follow its steps

You have to install Boot Camp drivers to make Windows work correctly on the computer.

First, press X key while your Mac is starting to start into OS X. Then, open Boot Camp Assistant, tick the option to download Windows support software and follow the steps to burn it into a DVD or USB drive. Finally, start into Windows and install it, so all drivers will be installed and your Mac will be working as normal on Windows
