The specific method steps are as follows:

1, first download Nt6 hdd installer software in the computer (interested friends, Baidu search download), and then install it in the computer;

Usually entering the installation interface is also faster, generally no more than half an hour.



Another hard disk installation method:

If your system is Win7, or VISTA, then you don’t need any tools, It is very convenient to install Windows 8.1 from the hard disk as follows:

1. Download the Win8.1 CD image

2. Extract the downloaded Win8.1 CD image file to the system disk. On the disk, there is no need to be the root directory of the disk, but keep in mind the path of decompression. The default decompression folder may be longer. The lesson will be changed to a shorter one, such as the file directory of the "wind8-file" file, for example, after we extract it. Placed in the E drive /win8-file directory, this needs to be remembered, useful later.

3, restart the computer, when the boot has not entered the system, press the F8 key on the keyboard, and then select “ repair computer & rdquo;.

4, in the pop-up selection and repair interface, select the last item "Command Prompt", as shown below:

7, after the installation is the default is to win8 boot, if you want to keep the default Windows 7 boot can be changed back in the win8 system through the msconfig settings, this can achieve future Win7, Win8 system double switch.

Win7 system users use this method to install very simple, on the one hand, it is convenient to install dual systems, and if you don't want Win7 system, you can also install it directly on the C drive.
