Installing Windows 7 Pro
If you have a brand new PC with a pre-installed Win 7, you may want to create a disk image of the PC before the installation, just in case things go wrong and you have to start over.
Making a disk image is also useful if you don't have a Win 7 installation DVD, and the drivers of the machine
Prerequisites
- A machine with a pre-installed Win 7 that has never been booted
- … or a Win 7 installation DVD, a licence number
- if possible, a DVD with the specific drivers of the machine
Basic installation steps
- Choose France (or whatever is most appropriate) for the different localization settings. Warning, it will not be possible to change the language after that
- User name: your LSCE login
Computer name: <login>-Dell or <login>-HP (or anything) - Password: anything you can remember
- License agreement: accept it…
- Security setting: only install important updates
- Time zone, etc…: choose the appropriate settings
- Wait, wait, wait (the computer may reboot)
- Done!!!
