Easy to reinstall Windows XP

Every computer user needs to know how to reinstall Windows XP. Why should I? Yes, because such a need can arise from any PC user. Not always a specialist can come to you quickly. And is it worth paying for what can be done qualitatively? Just study this information, and I assure you that reinstalling Windows XP will become routine for you. In addition, this is a very exciting process for those who love their personal computer and comfortable work on it.

Today, it is fashionable to produce so-called instructions "for teapots", teaching people how to work on a PC, creating web pages, and using computer programs. Our instructions are in some ways also "for teapots", so it is written in the most accessible form. Now you can assume that reinstalling the operating system from today is not a problem for you and in this area you are no longer a "kettle", but an advanced user. Well, shall we learn?

In fact, nothing complicated in this. Nevertheless, in the process of reinstalling the OS (operating system) , certain nuances may appear, which at first glance may even seem like problems. Keep calm, then reinstalling Windows XP will be simple and comfortable.

So, what do we need first of all? Of course, the installation CD with Windows XP. If the installation or reinstallation is performed on a netbook, then you need a flash drive instead of a disk. The disk itself can be purchased, or you can download the operating system from the Internet. It's up to you to decide, because there are plenty of opportunities and ways.

The next step is to get into the BIOS. This is done very simply. It is necessary when you restart the computer at the very beginning of it several times (when you get used, then once and enough), press the Delete key. In the BIOS in the boot menu (Boot) we find the CD-ROM and move it upward. The BIOS versions are somewhat different, and the point is that we need to install the boot from CD-ROM (or USB flash drives, of course).

We save, we leave the BIOS. The reinstallation of Windows XP continues, and the OS installation menu appears before us. Now select the desired partition to install the system. Usually this is a "C" disk. The disk should be formatted simply following the prompts. It is simply impossible to get confused, but if this happens, just calm down and take a good look at the installation menu.

Everything, the disk was formatted, the installation continues. The system copies the installation files to the hard disk (hard disk), and then automatically reboots the computer. Now, actually, the immediate reinstallation of Windows XP begins. All necessary drivers are installed. Although it is possible and put an additional them you do not have to.

But in any case you should have disks that when buying a PC went along with the motherboard, video card, monitor, sound and network cards. Simply after the installation is completed, the OS will in turn insert a CD into the drive and follow the prompts. Often, all the necessary drivers are on the same disk, and in your case, everything can be installed with the OS.

So, after our simple manipulations, in particular after formatting the disk, the reinstallation of Windows XP will continue automatically. It itself will end, and you only have to manually enter the computer name at will and set the region in which you are located. Almost all of this - and soon you will see a window of greeting OS.

Now, most likely, you will need to update the Windows XP system, because during the reinstallation all previous similar operations were lost. To this end, simply through the "Start" menu you need to perform an automatic update of the OS. In this case, you can update and other programs, in particular, Microsoft Office. Naturally, you must have access to the Internet. Then, with the appropriate settings, each subsequent update of the Windows XP system will occur automatically. That's all the wisdom. Congratulations on your new knowledge!
