WINDOWS8 system installed

WINDOWS8 System Installation Summary

The plan is to wait until Windows 8.1 come out and put on a new system, do not know how the hands of a cheap installation windows8. This installation has been a frustrating one for me all day, so I think it is necessary to record.

Get ready

First, now that you're ready to reinstall, some of the data is backed up for backup. The most important thing is to prepare a system ISO image file. I used two kinds of installation methods this time:

NE6 HDD

This is my most recommended installation method, if your original system is intact, can be used. Specific methods, references.

To be aware of: 1. If it is an XP system, choose Model1 Mode when restarting, and WINDOW7/8 select Model2 mode. The reason is unknown, I heard that this choice of error is less likely. In my experience of installation, no installation has occurred. 2. After entering the installation, you only need to format the system disk (usually C disk), do not format other disks, because I made two, the installation of the disk and the system disk format together, the result appears operating system can ' t find similar words, Need to be made by making a U disk to install.

U disk Installation

This is suitable for the system can not enter the computer installation system, need to prepare a USB disk larger than or equal to 4G, as well as the production of installation files tools, such as Utilios.

Note that: Enter the BIOS setup USB-HDD first boot, if the restart did not enter the USB-HDD, you need to manually press F10 select BOOT. At least my ThinkPad L421 is F10.

Activated

Install the system, of course, first of all to activate the system. I am using win8_activation_xp85, the advantage is simple, reboot is activated. The disadvantage is that after each update, you need to activate again. Other activation methods, there are activated through the phone, there are direct purchase from Taobao.

The best way, or support the genuine.
