Use Boot Camp Assistant. You need the Windows Installation disc, if you have that. Try to follow these steps:
1). Open Boot Camp Assistant, click next.
2). Insert your Windows disc, and then tick "Install Windows 7 or later version"
3). Click next, it will create partition for your windows. It takes time.
4). When it's done, your mac will restart and you will be directed to the windows installer.
5). Click next until it says "Install"
6). Don't click Install, click Advanced instead.
7). You should see 4 partitions, format partition that have "BOOTCAMP" name on it.
8). After you format the partition, you should be able to install Windows there by clicking next.
9). Wait until it's done.
10). You should be able to use windows
To use windows, hold alt/option when your mac boot.
You need to download windows support software at OS X, because your windows can't connect to the internet, after you download the support software, extract it and put the folder in your USB. But you need to format it to MS-DOT (FAT), after that boot your windows and find the folder you just put and click the setup.exe and then it will install a lot of software, it takes time. Then your mac will restart and you should be able to use windows.
If I made a mistake, tell me.
