Once you have both, and a suitable USB drive, you can open the program, select the drive, select the W7 ISO file and it will begin creating a bootable USB.
Once the USB is set up correctly, restart your PC and boot into the USB. (If you are unsure how to do this, go to your BIOS, usually by pressing F8, go to 'Hardware' or 'Drives' or something similar, select the boot override and select your USB.
