Installing windows 7 professional. BIOS: Boot from disk

In this article, we will explore in detail how to install windows 7. But before proceeding with the installation of Windows, ALWAYS make a backup of your important data, that is, save all your data to another partition, or to a USB flash drive, disk, etc.

All you need to install Windows 7 is a boot disk with this operating system, as well as a little free time and patience.

So, let's begin.

Windows 7 installation in pictures

1. Insert the Windows 7 disc into the DVD-Rom of your computer and, as soon as the computer starts to boot, enter the BIOS (to enter the BIOS, as a rule, you need to press the DEL key), to select boot from the DVD disc. In the BIOS, enter the menu "Boot" -> "Boot Device Priority" and for the first item "1st Boot Device" set the value to "CDROM", as in the figure below:

The second option to boot from a DVD is, as soon as the computer is turned on, press the F8 key to call up the boot option selection menu and select boot from CD-ROM / DVD-ROM.

2. As soon as you select a disk with Windows 7 to boot, its installation will automatically start:

After a few seconds, you will see the following window:

In the next window, you will be prompted to select the option to install the "seventh Windows":

I recommend installing a clean one - "Full installation". With this installation, the system disk is formatted and, accordingly, the previous version of Windows and all data, parameters and settings will be completely deleted, which will help to avoid possible failures and errors, this is the most reliable installation method.

There are times when the operating system crashes for one reason or another, either the file is missing, or something else, in which case you can try update windows by selecting the first item - "Update". With this option, all program settings, drivers and all your data are saved. But, since everything is saved, all program problems or other errors are saved with the same “success”, which can lead to malfunctions in the newly installed Windows. If the system starts, then the update is best launched from the Windows environment itself.

If the disk is new and not marked, then there will be a picture like mine above, if, then all your hard disk partitions will be presented here. Choose drive C, as a rule, be sure to format it, to do this, click on the link "Disk settings" and an additional menu will appear:

The main work is done, the installer will do everything by itself. The installation procedure will take about half an hour, during this time no intervention is required from you, so you can safely move away from the computer and go about your business.

Now you have almost succeeded in installing Windows 7, there is nothing left.

After the installation is complete, you will need to create your account. Create a username for yourself and enter in the "Username" field:

Then you will be asked to come up with a password for your account, the password is not required, and if no one else uses the computer except you or you do not have confidential information that needs to be kept secret, then the password can be omitted.

In the next window, you must enter the serial number of your copy:

Choose the Windows protection settings, in most cases the first option is suitable - "Use recommended settings":

Set the system time:

And the network option, for most users, the "Public network" option will do:

And after all these minor settings, the desktop of the newly installed operating system will load in front of you:

That's all. As you can see, installing Windows 7 is not difficult at all, no more difficult than installing any other program. And it is available to absolutely any user.

Hi all! I devoted this article to the disclosure of such a well-known topic " How to install Windows 7". So we will look at how to install the Windows 7 operating system on a personal computer. In the event that you think that installing the OS is something incomprehensible and complicated, then I will disappoint you, because this is not true. And you can be convinced of this.

What you need to install Windows 7 is the actual computer or laptop itself and an OS disk. Before starting the installation, you must decide on the bitness of the operating system and its version. I can immediately suggest that if you have less than 4 gigabytes of RAM in your computer, then do not hesitate and install a 32-bit system (x86). If the RAM is more than 4 GB, then don't even hesitate - install 64-bit Windows.

There are two very basic things that you need to do before installing the Windows operating system. Don't forget about them.

The very first thing you need is to decide in advance on which partition of your disk the operating system will be installed. It needs to be prepared in advance. In most cases, this is the C: drive. The entire desktop is just on this drive, so think carefully about the important files that you store here. Just copy these files from your desktop to another medium (partition or flash drive). All your programs installed on the system disk will also be deleted. However, you should not bother much here, because these programs can be easily reinstalled on a clean system. Do not be lazy, not every day you reinstall the Windows 7 operating system.


As for the second point, so here are the drivers for your PC equipment. Almost every computer comes with driver disks. If they are not, then you can easily find them on the Internet on the manufacturer's website.

In general, I advise you to prepare well for these two moments, so that later you don’t bite your elbows from the fact that your Internet does not work due to the lack of drivers for the network card, or the images are not displayed as we would like also due to the lack of a driver on video card.

How to install Windows 7 operating system

Actually, we proceed to install Windows 7 from the disk:
We insert the disk with the OS into the drive and restart the PC. Now you need to press the hot key for calling the Boot Menu (this is a menu in which you can select the priority of the device from which the boot will occur first). In our case, this device is a disk drive. Depending on the manufacturer, these keys may differ. Usually these are the F8, F9, F10, F11 or F12 keys on the keyboard. Immediately at the moment of turning on the computer, we press these hot buttons one by one until a similar window pops up.

After the boot menu appears, select CD / DVD-ROM and press Enter.

As soon as the inscription "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD" appears, immediately press Enter again or another key, such as a space.

When the inscription "Windows is loading files" appears, you need to wait a bit, because at this moment the files are being extracted. After extraction, you will see the inscription "Starting Windows". This indicates that the installation of Windows has begun.

Select the Russian language and click on "Install".



Now we are shown different editions of Windows 7. Choose the one you need. As for the bitness of the operating system, I already spoke almost at the very beginning.

After choosing, you need to read the terms of the license and agree.

Select the partition on which you want to install Windows. That is, if you reinstall the operating system, then before that look in the old Windows, how much memory is on the C: drive. And then it will be easier to find it when choosing a section. Click on "Disk Setup".

Choose formatting and agree.

When it is formatted, select this section again and click "Next".

After that, the installation process of the operating system begins.

Here we can relax and watch the installation of Windows. At this stage, all you need is patience. 15-30 minutes and our system will be installed on your computer. At this time, the computer will restart several times, do not be alarmed, these are the steps required during installation. Immediately after that, the system will prompt you to enter the username and computer name.

We drive in the data.

Now, if you want, you can put a password on the account.

Free in Russian you need to download boot files. It is better to buy a licensed disk and install the OS from it. If you do not have such an opportunity or you want to try out the operating system, you can download a disk image from the official site. This article will tell you how to install Windows 7 yourself and not screw it up.

Most of windows 7 on the internet is not licensed

Who seeks will always find

To install Windows 7 Ultimate for free from the Internet, you first need to find where to download it. There are a lot of safe sites on the Internet. The only thing is that most of these versions are not licensed, and therefore, after 30 days the system will require an activation key. On the Internet you can find a cracked OS that has a built-in tablet and does not require activation.

Maximum windows 7 opens up wide opportunities for the user. This is a productive and advanced version. It offers additional features, an encryption system, a multilingual user interface, and more. Keep this in mind, as some highly specialized programs require exactly the "maximum" edition of the OS.

OS installation methods: flash drive and others

The most common way is to install windows 7 from a flash drive. This method can be used regardless of whether there is a disk drive or not. So, to reinstall windows 7 from a USB flash drive, we create a bootable drive. If you already have it, from friends or acquaintances, then the matter is small: restart the computer and wait for the automatic installation of the OS to begin.

If you only have a disk image with installation files and an empty flash drive, you will have to create a . There are many options, but we will go the simple way. Download one of the programs:

  1. UltraISO
  2. Windows Download Tool
  3. WinSetupFromUSB

We throw off the downloaded ISO image on a flash drive. It is easier to work with Microsoft Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool. We indicate the location of the image on the PC and click "Next". After a couple of seconds, the installation flash drive is ready.

First you need to mount the image of Microsoft Windows 7 on a USB flash drive

Through the BIOS or boot menu, the process is simple. To configure the BIOS, you need to know the hot keys to enter this mode. They are different for every computer model. Therefore, first rummage on the Internet and find the right combination. After turning on the PC, press the keys and a menu will open in front of you:

  • We are looking for the “Startup Settings” section (called Boot” - “Boot Device Priority)
  • Select a flash drive as the first boot device
  • Press F10 to exit BIOS
  • Computer restarts and automatic installation starts

The problem with this method is that then you have to go back into BIOS and change the startup settings back.

We enter the BIOS when the computer starts

Another method is to launch the boot menu. It also needs a special button: Del, Esc, F2, or others. In the dialog box, you immediately change the launch options, and the OS installation begins. Moreover, the parameters automatically return to the standard ones. You can install windows 7 through bios not only using a USB flash drive, but also an installation disk. We will not consider installing Windows from a disk, since the process is no different from the one described above, it just does not require preliminary media setup. The disc must be inserted to restart the PC. If you can’t install windows 7 on your computer, you need to go back to the BIOS or boot menu and follow the same steps.

enter the boot menu - press the buttons: Del, Esc, F2 or others.

HDD

Few people know, but you can install windows 7 from your hard drive. This option is suitable for those who want to install windows without a disk or flash drive. This method is very simple in that you do not have to create an installation flash drive or delve into the BIOS. To start the required process, we need:

  • OS ISO image
  • Any imaging program (Daemon Tools)
  • You may need EasyBCD to work with the boot record

After you have found an image with the OS on the Internet, you need to prepare the hard drive. To do this, you need to create a partition under the OS on the HDD:

After you have found an image with the OS on the Internet, you need to prepare the hard drive
  • "Start" - "Computer" (right-click) - "Management" (run as administrator)
  • "Disk Management"
  • Depending on how many disks your PC has, we will need to work NOT with the system one.
  • We do not touch the system disk, select the second one and right-click "Compress Volume".
  • We determine the volume we need - 25 GB is enough - “Compress”
  • A new disk will appear in the window, but it is not ready yet. Right-click on the new part and select "Create a simple volume"
  • Here you can give a name to the disk, for example, D and click OK. We are waiting for formatting. Ready.

There are also other ways to make a partition on a disk using third-party programs.

So, when the HDD is ready to work, download the above programs and install. Using Daemon Tools, you need to unpack the image and transfer the installation files from the virtual disk to the D partition we created.

Using Daemon Tools, you need to unpack the image and transfer the installation files from the virtual disk

Run EasyBCD as administrator. In the Add New Entry menu, select the WinPE tab and in the Name field name our system (whatever you want). Below we indicate the path to the boot.wim file, which lies in the sources folder on the disk we created earlier. Click Add Entry. The HDD is ready for installation.

Network download

There is an installation of windows 7 over the network. This method is very complex and time consuming. You will need the Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK) for Windows 7, a Windows 7 distribution, and DHCP and TFTP servers. If you do not understand this, then there is no point in delving into this topic. It is better to use one of the above OS installation methods.

Installation process

If you decide to install Windows 7 from the Internet for free, it remains to follow the step-by-step instructions and make sure that the data is entered correctly. Regardless of the method you want to use, after turning on the computer, windows will automatically install:

Installing Windows 7 takes some time, depending on the power of your computer.
  • Choose a language
  • We accept the terms of the license agreement
  • Select "Full installation"
  • It is recommended to format all drives
  • The PC will restart and continue with the installation
  • Give and set a password
  • In the activation window, click "Next"
  • "Use recommended settings"
  • Setting the date and time
  • We search for a home network

Setting up Windows 7 after installation ends here.

Further work with the operating system

If it doesn’t start on windows 7, you will have to look for the right software. Program . Programs for installing drivers on windows 7 are useful if you do not have an installation disk with all the necessary start-up firewood.

After reinstalling the OS, you need to download the drivers for the video card so that the images are correct, the drivers for the sound video card, the necessary programs for windows 7, such as Microsoft Office and the browser.

System errors

Problems may occur during OS installation. One of the main ones is where you are trying to download the . Initially, the installation files may be incorrect, and therefore there will be problems during installation. A common error when the necessary drivers were not found when installing windows 7. This error is due to the presence on modern computers of two USB 2.0 and 3.0 connectors. You can fix this problem by moving the flash drive from one slot to another.

A common error when the necessary drivers are not found when installing windows 7

Often users are faced with the fact that windows 7 is not installed on the hard drive. This issue is related to boot media creation errors. The reason may be user inattention. Some drives do not read all discs, especially older models. Also, the computer can independently protect the system from pirated copies, so during. If you still have problems, it is better to contact the service center.

Hello! This is the first article on this blog and I decided to devote it to installing the operating system (hereinafter referred to as OS) Windows 7. The era of seemingly unsinkable Windows XP is coming to an end (despite the fact that about 50% of users still use this OS), which means a new era is coming - the era of Windows 7.

And in this article I would like to dwell on the most important, in my opinion, points when installing and first setting up this OS on a computer.

And so ... let's get started.

1. What should I do before installation?

Installing Windows 7 begins with the most important thing - checking the hard drive for important files that you need. You need to copy them before starting the installation to a USB flash drive or external hard drive. By the way, perhaps this applies to any OS in general, and not just Windows 7.

1) Check your computer for compliance first system requirements this OS. Sometimes, I see a strange picture when they want to install a new version of the OS on an old computer, and they ask why they say there are errors and the system is behaving unstable.

By the way, the requirements are not so high: 1GHz processor, 1-2 GB of RAM, and about 20 GB of hard disk space. In details - .

Any new computer on sale today meets these requirements.

2) Copy* all important information: documents, music, pictures to another medium. For example, you can use DVDs, flash drives, services (and similar ones), etc. By the way, today you can find on sale, with a capacity of 1-2 TB. Why not an option? The price is more than affordable.

* By the way, if your hard disk is divided into several partitions, then the partition on which you will not install the OS will not be formatted and you can safely save all files from the system disk on it.

3) And the last. Some users forget that you can copy many programs with their settings so that they can continue to work in the new OS. For example, after reinstalling the OS, many of them lose all torrents, and sometimes hundreds of them!

To avoid this, use the tips. By the way, in this way you can save the settings of many programs (for example, when reinstalling, I save the Firefox browser additionally, and I don’t have to configure plug-ins and bookmarks).

2. Where to get the installation disk

The first thing we need to get is, of course, a boot disk with this operating system. There are several ways to get it.

1) Purchase. You get a licensed copy, all kinds of updates, the minimum number of errors, etc.

2) Often such a disk comes with your computer or laptop. True, Windows, as a rule, presents a stripped-down version, but for the average user, its functions will be more than enough.

3) You can also make a disk yourself.

To do this, you need to buy a blank DVD-R or DVD-RW disc.

2.1. Writing a boot image to a Windows 7 disk

To begin with, you need to have such an image. The easiest way to do it is from a real disk (well, or download it on the network). In any case, we will assume that you already have it.

1) Run the Alcohol 120% program (in general, this is not a panacea, there are a huge number of programs for recording images).

2) Select the option "burn CD/DVD from images".

3) Specify the location of your image.

5) Press "start" and wait for the end of the process.

In general, in the end, the main thing is that when you insert the resulting disc into a CD-Rom, the system starts to boot.

Important! Sometimes, the boot from CD-Rom feature is disabled in the BIOS. Next, we will take a closer look at how to enable booting in Bios from a boot disk (sorry for the tautology).

3. Setting up Bios to boot from CD-Rom

Each computer has its own kind of bios, and it is unrealistic to consider each of them! But in almost all versions, the main options are very similar. Therefore, the main thing is to understand the principle!

When the computer boots immediately press the Delete or F2 key (By the way, the button may differ, it depends on your BIOS version. But, as a rule, you can always recognize it if you pay attention to the boot menu that appears in front of you for a few seconds when you turn on the computer).

And yet, it is advisable to press the button not once, but several times until you see the BIOS window. It should be in blue tones, sometimes greens predominate.

E if your Bios not at all like what you see in the picture below, I recommend that you read the article about, as well as the article about.

Management here will be carried out using the arrows and the Enter key.

You need to go to the Boot section and select Boot Device Priority (this is the boot priority).

Those. I mean where to start booting the computer: let's say, immediately start booting from the hard disk, or first check the CD-Rom.

So you will make a point in which the first thing will be to check the CD for the presence of a boot disk in it, and only then go to the HDD (hard disk).

After changing the BIOS settings, be sure to exit it by saving the entered options (F10 - save and exit).

Note. In the screenshot above, the first thing to do is boot from floppy (now floppy disks are becoming rarer and rarer). Next, it is checked for a CD-Rom boot disk, and the third step is to load data from the hard disk.

By the way, in everyday work, it is best to disable all downloads except the hard drive. This will make your computer run a little faster.

4. Installing Windows 7 - the process itself ...

If you have ever installed Windows XP, or any other OS, then you can easily install Windows 7 as well. Here, almost everything is the same.

Insert the boot disk (we already recorded it a little earlier ...) into the CD-Rom tray and restart the computer (laptop). After a while, you will see (if you configured the BIOS correctly) a black screen with inscriptions ... See the screenshot below.

Calmly wait until all the files are downloaded and you are prompted to enter installation parameters. Next, you should see the same window as in the picture below.

A screenshot with an OS installation agreement and acceptance of the agreement, I think it makes no sense to insert it. In general, up to the step of partitioning the disk, go calmly, reading everything along the way and agreeing ...

Here in this step you need to be careful, especially if you have information on your hard drive (if a new drive, you can do whatever you want with it).

You need to choose hard disk partition where Windows 7 will be installed.

E if there is nothing on your disk, it is advisable to divide it into two parts: on one there will be a system, on the second - data (music, films, etc.). It is best to allocate at least 30 GB for the system. However, it is up to you to decide...

If you have information on the disk- act very carefully (preferably even before installation, copy important information to other disks, flash drives, etc.). Deleting a partition may make it impossible to recover data!

In any case, if you have two partitions (usually system drive C and local drive D), then you can install a new system on system drive C, where you previously had a different OS.

After selecting a partition to install, a menu will appear in front of you, which will show the installation status. Here you need to wait without touching or pressing anything.

On average, installation takes from 10-15 minutes to 30-40. After this time, the computer (laptop) may be restarted several times.

Then, several windows will appear in front of you, in which you will need to set the computer name, specify the time and time zone, enter the key. You can simply skip some of the windows and configure everything later.

Network selection in Windows 7

Completing the installation of Windows 7. Start Menu

This completes the installation. You just have to install the missing programs, set up applications and do your favorite games or work.

5. What needs to be installed and configured after installing Windows?

Nothing... 😛

For most users, everything immediately works, and they don’t even think that something needs to be additionally downloaded, installed, etc. Personally, I think that at least 2 things need to be done:

2) Create or flash drive.

3) Install the drivers for the video card. Many then, when they don’t do this, wonder why the games start or some don’t start at all ...

Interesting! In addition, I recommend that you read the article about after installing the OS.

PS

This article about installing and configuring the seven is completed. I tried to present the information in the most accessible way for readers with different levels of computer proficiency.

Most often, installation problems are of the following nature:

Many are afraid of Bios like fire, although in fact, in most cases, everything is simply configured there;

Many people do not burn the disc from the image correctly, so the installation simply does not start.

If you have any questions or comments, I will answer... I always take criticism well.

Good luck to all! Alex...

Hello readers of my blog! Many people think that installing Windows is a complicated procedure, but in fact, everything is not so difficult and an experienced user will be able to do it on their own.

Today I will tell you how to install and (or) reinstall Windows 7.

If you decide to reinstall Windows, then in addition to this, you will have to reinstall all programs and drivers.

So, let's begin….

Part 1: Preparing to Install Windows 7

Step #1. Information backup

1. Before reinstalling the windows 7 operating system, check how many disks you have on your computer (Icon: “ My computer”). The system is usually installed on the system drive [ C] (there should be a folder on it: “Windows”). During the reinstall process, the [ C] will be formatted and all data from this disk will be deleted!

If you have only one disc, then you should copy to a flash drive, portable hard drive, or CD / DVD disc (s) all the information that is important to you! These are your documents, photos, music, movies, etc. (Folder: “My Documents”, Desktop, bookmarks of your Internet browser, your mail, etc.).

Or divide the disk into two logical disks (if free disk space on it allows) (but this is a topic for a separate article: “”)

If you have two or more disks, then copy all the important data to other disks in your system (usually they are indicated by the letters: D, E, F, etc.), and you can also duplicate it on a USB flash drive, on a portable hard drive or on CD/DVD disc(s).

2. Find the device driver disks for your computer or laptop. As a rule, such disks are supplied with a computer or laptop.

It is best to download the latest drivers for the motherboard chipset, video adapter, network card and other computer components from their manufacturers' websites.

Well, if the system doesn’t work for you at all or Windows is installed from scratch, you can use the driver assembly:. To do this, you need to download it and burn it to DVD ± R - a disc (blank). (How to burn discs is described below...)

Step #2. Preparing the Windows 7 distribution disc

If you already have a Windows 7 distribution disc, you can skip this step. If you do not have it, then you need to burn it (ideally, purchase the original disc). If you download a Windows 7 distribution on the Internet, then look for clean MSDN builds of Windows 7. They will be the least of all problems.

To burn a disk with a Windows 7 distribution kit, we need:

- The original disk image with Windows 7 in the format: .iso.

— Utility: “ ” to write the image to disk (you can use other disk burning utilities);

- A blank DVD±R disc (blank).

First, install and run the utility downloaded from the link above:

(All images are clickable...)

On the menu " Create/burn disc image” select item: “ burnCD/DVD/blue-ray disk from a disk image”.

We press the button: " Review” and indicate where the Windows 7 image is located:

Insert a blank DVD±R disc into the drive. Press the button " burnDVD»

Waiting for the disc to burn

Here it is:

The disk with the distribution kit of Windows 7 is ready!

Step #3. SettingsBIOS

In order for the boot disk to boot when the computer is turned on, you need to make the appropriate settings in bios.

Every time your computer is turned on or rebooted, the system boots up according to the BIOS settings.

Among the important parameters of the BIOS is the definition of the boot order of devices. This is what interests us. To do this, when you turn on (restart) the computer, you need to press a certain key. As a rule, at boot, at the bottom of the screen it is indicated which button to press to enter the BIOS. Usually it is F2, Del, Esc and others.

After entering the BIOS, you need to find where the boot order is configured. These settings are usually located on the “BOOT” tab, although they may be in another BIOS menu on your computer. To change the boot order, the F5 / F6, + - or arrow menu buttons are usually used. How to change the boot order should also be indicated in the instructions or in the BIOS itself.

So we go into BIOS and go to the "Boot" tab, then click on the "Boot Device Priority" tab. (Your BIOS may be different, but the meaning is the same) ...

Set your CD / DVD drive to the first place in the boot list, save the settings and exit the BIOS. Usually for this you need to find the “Save and Exit Setup” item in the BIOS.

Now that all preparations for installing Windows have been made, and we are armed with a boot disk, we can proceed directly to Installing Windows 7

Part 2. Installing Windows 7

After all the preparations for installing Windows 7, we come to the most interesting part: directly installing Windows 7.

When booting from a disk and this inscription appears, you need to press any key:

In the next window select " windows installation”:

In the next window, copying files for installing windows 7 will begin. We are waiting a bit ...

After the files are downloaded, the Windows 7 installer will start, where we will select the interface language we need:

In this window, also select the system language and click the “ Further”:

In the next window, click on the " Install”:

Important note: also in this window there is an item “ System Restore". If you need to restore Windows 7 or access the Recovery Console, then click on this item.

In the next window, select the version of Windows 7. Choose the version for which you have a key. It is listed on a sticker on the bottom of the laptop or computer case. You will enter the key in Windows 7 at the end of the installation. You can not enter it immediately, but within 30 days you will have to enter it in the properties of the Computer.

Agree to the License Agreement and click " Further”:

In the next window, you will need to select a partition for installing windows 7. Next, click on “ Disk setup”:

A disk setup window will appear, where you can delete, create and format disks. If you have two or more partitions, bet on the first partition. But first it needs to be formatted, for which place the cursor on this section and click “ Format”.

OK”:

Note: sometimes, especially on laptops, there are one or two hidden partitions (small, 100-300 MB each). DO NOT INSTALL Windows 7 on them.

If you have two or more sections (except for hidden sections), you can skip this paragraph ...

If you have one section, then it is advisable to divide it into two, i.e. Put Windows7 on the first partition (for example, “C”), and everything else (games, music, movies) will be installed on another drive (for example, “D”). To do this, press " Delete", then " Create”.

Note: Be aware that all data on this partition will be deleted!

In the next window, set the size of the partition and click " Apply

Note: Set the size of the first partition for the system within 40960-122880 MB (40-120 GB) (The size of the partition is not critical and may vary by you)

The system will prompt you to create additional partitions for system files. We agree and click " OK”:

So, we see that two sections have been created, one main, the other is reserved for system files. But there is still free space on the disk, we use it for another partition. Put the cursor on the line " Unallocated disk space” and press “ Create”:

The installer will offer to use all the remaining free space for the partition. We agree and click " Apply”:

We see that we now have three partitions, including the system one. We will immediately format the third partition, and on the second we will install Windows 7 (the installer will then format it itself). So, we select " Section 3” and click “ Format”:

A warning will appear that all data from the partition you are formatting will be deleted. Click " OK”:

Now select " Section 2” and click “ Further” to install Windows 7 on this partition:

The window “ InstallationWindows". Waiting for Windows components to install:

When the system is installed, enter the username and computer name:

In the next window, enter the password (optional) and click “ Further”:

If you have a license key for windows 7 (if you have a laptop with Windows 7, then it is printed on a sticker on the bottom of the laptop), then enter it here, if not, just click "Next".

Note: The license key may or may not be entered. You can use Windows without activation for up to 30 days. Then this counter can be reset several times.

Specify the time zone, date and time:

In the next window, the system will automatically prompt you to specify the type of network. Choose the type of network connection:

That's all. Windows 7 installed:

In addition, you need to rewrite back all the information that you previously copied at the beginning of the article.

Also, after all the operations have been done, you can make a disk image. In the event of a “crash”, a system failure, you can return everything to its original state. I will describe how to do this in the article: “How to make a Backup system
