Windows 10 Installation

1. Press and hold Del or F2 to enter setup. This key may also be a different key—most
computers will display a message on startup that says "Press [key] to enter setup" or something
similar, so look for this message when your computer restarts to confirm the key you should
press to access the BIOS.

2. Navigate to the Boot tab. You'll use the arrow keys to select it.
 The Boot tab may instead say Boot Options, depending on your computer's manufacturer.

3. Select a device from which to boot. You have a couple of options here:
 For a USB flash drive, select the Removable Devices option.
 For a disc installation, select the CD-ROM Drive option.

4. Press the + key until your boot option is first. Once either Removable Devices or CD-
ROM Drive is at the top of the list, your computer will select your choice as its default boot
option.
 On some computers, you'll instead press one of the function keys (e.g., F5 ) to navigate an

option up to the top of the menu. The key will be listed on the right side of the screen.

5. Save your settings. You should see a key prompt (e.g., F10 ) at the bottom of the screen that
correlates to "Save and Exit"; pressing it should save your settings and restart your computer.
 You may have to press ↵ Enter to confirm the changes.

6. Wait for your computer to restart. Once your computer finishes restarting, you'll see a
window here with your geographical data. You're now ready to begin setting up your Windows
10 installation.

7. Click Next when prompted. You can also change the options on this page (e.g., the setup
language) before continuing if need be.
8. Click Install Now. It's in the middle of the window.

9. Enter your Windows 10 key, then click Next. If you don't have a Windows 10 key, instead
click Skip in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
10. Click the "Accept" box and click Next. This will indicate that you accept the terms of use.
11. Click Custom. This process will allow you to partition your hard disk drive with the desired
amount of capacity you want.

12. Select the Primary Partition then click Next. You will receive the following warning:
13. Wait for Windows 10 to install. This process may take anywhere from half an hour to
several hours, depending on your computer's previous operating system and processing
speed.
 If prompted to press a key in order to boot from a CD or Flash Drive, do not press a key.

14. Follow the on-screen setup instructions. Once Windows 10 has been installed on your
computer, you'll be able to customize its settings (e.g., your region, your preferred language,
location settings, etc.). Once you finish this process, you will be taken to your computer's
desktop.
 You can also click Express Settings to set up Windows 10 with the recommended
settings.

Congratulation you are done installing Windows 10.
