Hard Drive Installation System tutorial

Download the CD image, but the computer does not have an optical drive, or have an optical drive but can not be carved into a CD-ROM, how to do? It does not matter, hard disk (PE) installation will solve the problem

The following is an example of how to install the installation version of XP on your hard drive with my humble version of XP:

The saying goes well, Ching. So prepare the materials for the installation of the system.

1. XP installation image file:

This needless to say, is the installation system must. General Download the file is ISO format, if the extension is RAR or 7Z, please use WinRAR decompression to get the ISO file standby.

2. PE Toolbox:

This is the key to the implementation of the hard disk installation XP, and because PE is a graphical interface, more convenient for beginners to use, here is recommended uepon production of the General PE Toolbox V1.9.6. Of course, you can also try to use other PE, but note that PE is best to achieve the plug-in program all built-in or external program transfer to another disk, so that you install the system smoothly format C disk. Maybe some friends doubt that since PE is installed in C disk, how can format C disk it, the reason is here, it is because PE is running in memory operating system, if it is the full built-in PE words, the operation will not occupy any files on the hard disk.

3. Driver package file

This is an optional thing, if you already have a driver package on hand or you are ready to install the driver you do not have to do this, I also recommend that you install the driver, try not to use the Universal driver package. Now the more popular driver package is the free Sky driver package, currently the latest version is E drive 5.08[3], you can download the latest driver package. After downloading is generally a compressed package file, extract to a system-free partition root directory standby.

The first step in installing the system is to install the PE Toolbox.

Uepon design of the PE installation program is very user-friendly, as long as the next step of the next model can complete the installation of PE.

Install mode Select "Install to Hard disk", the external program to set to the non-system partition (that is, you do not want to block out the kind of partition), here in D disk as an example

PE installed, you can restart the computer.

At this time you will find the System selection menu will be more than a PE menu, do not say, with the key to select him, into PE

Into PE, is not a full desktop of the tool to frighten, does not matter, only need virtual CD-ROM tool VDM can

Double-click the VDM virtual CD drive and select "Mount" in the pop-up window. (PS: The allocation of the letter to select one on the line, as long as not conflict with the existing disk, I used to choose the Z disk, so there will be no conflict), then click "Browse", select the previously prepared XP CD image files
