Overview

In lesson 2 we'll show how to install Windows 7, partitioning and formating the primary hard drive. The installation is mostly waiting for files to install and Windows to configure itself. We'll let you know when the long waits happen. Make yourself a snack between the screens.

We turned the computer on and it's asking us to reboot and select a proper boot device or inserted boot media. What this means is that it doesn't see an operating system on either of the hard drives which is correct because right now they are both blank. It then tried to boot to the disk in the DVD drive and right now there is no disk in the drive. We’ll put in the Windows 7 install disk and press a key on the keyboard.

What it's doing now is loading the initial files it needs to start the install. This usually takes about five minute.

If you're installing Windows Vista the install process is almost exactly the same as Windows 7. The graphics are just a little different. If you need to install Windows XP on your computer the XP installation video is available for free online at www.homepcbuilder.com/xp
