If it is from 2001 it definitely won’t boot Windows. It also probably shipped with OS 9 on a CD.

Since your Mac is from 2001, It most certainly won't run anything past Leopard (10.5) and may not even run Leopard (If it doesn't, then it would run Tiger (10.4). Regardless, you will need an installation disc for this appropriate version. Follow the instructions that come with the installer to install from the disc.
Recovery mode is persistent on newer Macs, but can be erased on older ones.
