Not possible. Why?

Windows 7, 8 and 10 do not fit on a CD. So my suggestion is to move to DVD and then you might make progress.

And To Download Windows 8.1 ISO Installer To DVD
May 23, 2017 10:16AM PDT

Here's the link where you can download Microsoft's Windows 8.1 ISO, from which the image can be burned to a DVD and the OS installed. You must have the legal Windows product key for this version of Windows to install it.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows8

Or, if the system already has Windows 8 on it, why not simply upgrade to 8.1, then to Windows 10?

Hope this helps.
