You should download solaris from http://www.sun.com/downlaods
, you have to choose the intel version.
I donīt remember how many cd are th complete installation, but the fist iso image is bootable, so when you boot from these cd and format the disk you will be sure that windows is gone.

Remember that you need a cd burner in order to create the solaris cds.
