| How to install Windows |
Get Windows version
First, you can get a genuine copy of Windows from Microsoft, or you can buy a non-genuine copy of Windows anywhere, or you can download a copy of Windows from the Internet and burn it to a CD (must be bootable), but any way to get a copy From Windows is not genuine. It's illegal and the blog doesn't support it, but if you have to, make sure you get an unmodified copy of Windows, and I'll repeat unmodified. We definitely see Windows versions, for example, Windows Spiderman! This copy was modified by an average person, put wallpapers, etc, and then put it up, it's just a mod, and most of these copies don't last on the device for a week! Therefore, get an unmodified copy of Windows, and we will know the difference between the original copy of Windows and the non-original copy through the following lines.
Set your device to boot from the CD
When the computer starts (if the machine is working, reboot), you press the Delete button, until a blue screen appears with options, choose Advanced BIOS Features, then Enter. [How to boot from a flash drive or CD to install Windows on your device]
After that, you will see other options, and they differ from one system to another, but it is related to setting the boot of your device to the CD, so that the device boots from the CD and not from the hard disk, so we will search for the phrase Boot Devices, then choose CDROM as the first boot device.
Then we return to the main page by pressing the ESC button, then select Save & Exit Setup, then press Y, then pressing Enter.
Thus, the machine will reboot, so you put the CD and the machine will boot via the CD, a message will appear informing you that if you want to boot from the CD, press any button and then press Enter.
