Windows 7 – Preparations before Installation

1. First of all, we need a DVD of Windows 7, that can be purchased from any computer shop in the market or downloaded online. If you download it from an online store, it would possibly be in .iso format and you need to burn a disc. You can check our post how to burn a disc from iso file.

2. Before installation, you need to ‘save’ your files that exist on C drive. Usually, drive ‘C’ will be formatted during the installation procedure and all the files will be wiped out. If you are installing on a new PC, then It doesn’t concern you, well and in the other case you need to move all the files (from Drive ‘C’) to another drive. The data stored on the desktop, in my documents, pictures and downloads also will be deleted.

If you miss your data then will have to spend money for data recovery, and sometimes it may be serious. This is absolutely true that “Protection is better than cure”.

3. Now we come to the last point that you need to make tiny changes in BIOS setting and set the BIOS to boot from the CD/DVD. It should be in the first place (by default the computer boots from HDD). After doing all, simply insert the DVD in the drive and restart the computer or laptop whatever you are using. If the computer boots from the disk, then everything is ok. And, if the PC doesn’t boot, then you need to configure BIOS settings (check below). Preparing to install is complete, go to the installation.

How to configure BIOS Setting

This is not a big task, just restart your PC and press a specific key (generally display on the display while booting but mostly it happened Del button or F12). For Instance, press the “Del” key (tap continuously until the BIOS open) and a blue screen will appear with some functions. Go to “Boot” tab by arrow key and press enter on Boot device priority, Go to “First Boot Device “ and press enter and choose CD/DVD RW. Now Press F10 key and click on OK. Your BIOS setting will be saved accordingly and you should boot your CD/DVD.
