INTRODUCTION
Windows 7 is Microsoft’s latest version of its Windows operating system. Unlike its predecessor,
Vista, Windows 7 offers incremental upgrades and is aimed at ensuring maximum compatibility
with applications and hardware already supported in Vista. As mentioned in the Preface,
Microsoft’s key agenda regarding Windows 7 is to lure back many of the Windows XP users who
skipped Vista.
This chapter first walks you through the different versions of Windows 7 available, followed by
an overview of the installation process.
Windows 7 is the Microsoft Windows operating system (OS) released commercially in October
2009 as the successor to Windows Vista.
Windows 7 is built on the Windows Vista kernel and was intended to be an update to the Vista
OS. It uses the same Afro user interface (UI) that debuted in Windows
Vista.

INSTALLING WINDOWS 7
▪If you are currently running Windows Vista (with Service Pack 1), you can upgrade to
Windows 7 directly from within Vista. Windows XP users will need to install a fresh copy of
Windows 7.
Fig 1 :- Use Windows Easy Transfer to migrate your Windows XP settings to Windows 7
▪The following steps will walk you through the process of installing Windows 7 on a
fresh computer.
▪Installing Windows 7 is straightforward—if you’re doing a clean install, simply boot up your
computer with the Windows 7 installation DVD inside the DVD drive and instruct your
computer to boot from the DVD (you may need to press a key, such as F11 or F12, while the
computer is
starting to enter the boot selection screen). If you’re upgrading, simply boot into Windows
Vista, insert the disc, and run the installer (if you are using Windows XP, see the previous
sidebar ).
▪When the installer has booted up, you will be greeted with the screen shown in Figure 1-2 (the
upgrade screen is slightly different; you will have an option to check the compatibility of your
system or start the installation). You will be asked to select the language to install, the time and
currency format, and your keyboard type.

▪ On the next screen, you have a choice between upgrading your existing Windows or
installing a fresh copy of Windows. If you are using Windows XP or earlier, the first option
will not work for you— select the Custom (advanced) option
▪ For a fresh installation, you will be asked to select a disk for installing Windows 7.
Select the appropriate disk and click Next (see Figure 1-5). If you are upgrading, the
Windows 7 installer will generate a compatibility report and save it to your desktop.

METHODOLOGY
▪ Windows will now take some time to copy all the files into the selected disk and proceed with
the installation (see Figure 1-6). This will take about 20–30 minutes, depending on the speed of
your computer.
▪ When the installation is complete, Windows 7 will restart. After Windows 7 has been
restarted, you should see the screen shown in Figure 1-7. Provide a username; your computer
name will be created based on what you have entered (you can change it to another name if
you want to after the installation). Click Next.

SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
▪ You will be asked to enter a password to protect your user account. You are strongly advised to
provide one. In the next screen, you will be asked to enter a product key to activate
Windows 7.
▪ You will also be asked to select a way to update Windows.
▪ Next, you will set up the current date and time, and finally, if your
computer has a network card, Windows 7 will prompt you to select your
current location.
▪ That’s it! You are now ready to explore Windows 7 .

generations like Gen Alpha grow up & join the workforce good & efficient operating
system will be the topmost priority of every business setting. If you are planning to get a
degree in IT, now is the best time to start.
