How To Format A Computer With Windows 7 or Windows 8

Installing Windows

Now here's some easy step how to format your computer with windows 7 or windows 8.
There's no doubt that Windows 7 is far better than the previous version of Windows XP or Windows Vista.
To format you need a boot disk of Windows 7 or Windows 8 which you've bought or Downloaded.

Now Here's The Steps With Pictures:

Data Backup: 

Remember, to install Windows only one drive(eg: C Drive) need to be formatted. And formatting C Drive will delete everything from C Drive, My Documents Folder and Desktop. So make sure you've backed up every important file before format.
By the way, if you want format a whole Hard Disk or want to make partition then back up everything from your Hard Disk.


Data Backup

Boot Menu Setting:

To boot from CD or DVD or USB drive you have to make your CD/DVD or USB Drive first boot device in priority. To do this, while starting your computer enter in BIOS set up when Manufacturers logo screen appears. To enter in this setting page, press F2, F10, F12 or DEL key while starting your computer.(The particular key will be displayed below the screen when manufacturers logo screen appears)


Step 1



Step 2


Now in BIOS menu go to the Boot menu option. And change the order of boot device making the CD Drive as first boot device. This will boot from CD rather than Hard Disk while starting your system. 

Now Save your changes you made and exit(by pressing F10 and this may varies system to system) 
Now your computer will restart.

Note: If you are installing from a USB drive, then you have to set the Removal Storage as first boot device priority.
