Firstly you will need to make sure your CD Drive is set to the fist boot
device. If you do not have an existing operating system installed your PC
should recognize this and then choose the next available boot device. Setting
the Boot order is done in the BIOS. The get into the BIOS simply turn on your
PC, and when the operator logo appears there will be options stating what keys
to press to enter the BIOS, this is normally the "del/delete" key.
When you enter the BIOS you will need to scroll through the top menus using the
arrow keys until you find the option for "BOOT DEVICE PRIORITY",
enter that menu by pushing "ENTER" and in there you can use the
"+" and "-" keys to move your optical drive to the top of
the list. Simply save your settings and Exit the BIOS and your PC will reboot.
2 - Insert the Windows 7 Disk
Pop the Windows 7 disk in your CD/DVD Drive and your PC should ask, after
the operator logo appears, "PRESS ANY KEY TO BOOT FROM YOUR CD OR DVD
DRIVE", simply press any key and and windows will begin to load files to
your PC whilst displaying a loader bar.
3 - Regional Options
The setup will ask you to select your relevant regional settings. Make your
selections and click "NEXT" to continue. You will then be asked to
click "INSTALL" to continue, please do this.
4 - Licence Terms
A Software Licence Terms box will appear, please read these and if you agree
by them tick the "AGREE BOX" and then click "NEXT" to
Continue.
5 - What Type of Installation do you want? The installer will ask
what type of installation you want to run, select "CUSTOM
(ADVANCED)".
6 - Where to install Windows?
The next prompt that appears asks what partition you wish to install Windows
to. To most users installing a new copy of windows there will only be one
partition available which will say something like "Disk 0 Unallocated
Space", select where you want to install your operating system and click
next.
For users that are reinstalling windows, you will need to select each
partition of the disk and delete them. Do this by clicking on each partition
and then clicking "DRIVE OPTIONS (ADVANCED)" then "DELETE"
and then confirm your action.
7 - Off it goes
The installer will then continue and will display its current progress.
Putting the kettle on at this point is advisable!

After a while your PC will reboot and continue with the installation. After
it finishes the installation you will be prompted to enter a "USER
NAME" and "COMPUTER NAME", do this and then click
"NEXT" to continue. You will then be asked if you would like to give
your user name an associated password, if you wish to do this then enter a
valid password and click "NEXT" otherwise leave the fields blank.

Enter your Windows 7 Product key and click "NEXT".

A protect your computer box will appear, please select how you would like to
protect your Custom PC, most users will want to select "USE RECOMMENDED
SETTINGS". You will then be asked to review your date and time settings,
do so and then click "FINISH".

If your computer
is connected to a network then please select your current location. If your PC
is not connected to a network then you will be presented with your fully
working Windows environment. Well done, you have completed the Windows 7
