Install Windows 8 on a partition fresh bootcamp with license but not DVD

If my hard drive MBPro renounced me, and I replaced it with an SSD. The old drive was a Bootcamp partition with a legal license of Windows 8 Pro (I guess that 64-bit), I updated to a version of Windows 7 DVD online. Now, I want my rear windows. My DVD player given me another year, so there first installation that Win7 is not an option. [Insert joke Apple here.] No idea how I can legally re - install Windows 8.0 or 8.1 my bootcamp partition? I think I need a .iso to install on a USB drive throughout OSX.

Thank you
