The installation procedure of the win8 system U disk

The Win8 bootable USB disk has not been supported before the production of Win8 boot disk, so we still need to use the first The software of the three parties, the author here is the UltraISO tool.

After downloading the latest UltraISO software online, we can choose to try it out, or look for some serial number to activate it. Let's start making Win8 bootable USB sticks.

The previous step starts to write the image file of the USB flash drive, and then the following interface pops up. Select the path to make a USB flash drive

This step is mainly to select the path to write to the USB flash drive. If you insert multiple USB flash drives, you need to select the USB flash drive to create the boot disk. In addition, the USB flash drive that makes the boot disk must be an empty disk, so it needs to be backed up in advance when there is data. Once the dot is written, the pop-up interface confirms, then the system will automatically format the USB flash drive, so backup is needed to avoid data loss. Startup disk production

I believe everyone has learned how to make a USB flash drive that can install Windows8 system.

Win8 system installation steps

The entire Win8 installation is very smooth, the steps are basically the same as Win7, but all in English, users who have not installed Win7 may be a little troublesome. The author will tell you step by step how to install the Windows 8 operating system.

Just finished the USB boot disk of the U disk, the following need to make the system boot USB flash drive through the BIOS settings.

Press the F12 button, or press the Del button to enter the BOOT setting of the BIOS, and let the boot item be selected to the USB flash drive.

Installation Terms

This interface is the installation note, we directly select the following The consent option is fine. Otherwise there is no way to move on to the next step. Then press the Next button.

Since this article also tests the disk performance of the two systems, I chose the fastest solid state drive. In the partition, we found that the storage system information reserved by Win8 is 350MB, and the system capacity reserved by Win7 is only 100MB. It can be seen that the system information of Win8 is more.

Disk Information

After formatting the area, select Next to start the installation. Install the operating system files

Win8 startup interface

We see that Win8's startup interface is very simple, there is no classic window of Windows fluttering when Win7, it seems a bit unaccustomed. Adding Computer Information

The above two items are information for adding a computer name and a user name, and the two cannot have the same name. Start interface

Win8 is finally installed, this is the start menu, it looks very tablet-like. Because all the sections are added and removed. Desktop Environment

Only the desktop environment is the same as Win7, only one recycler is lying on the desktop. When the start button in the lower left corner is clicked in, the picture of the above picture will appear, which is not particularly convenient to use.

In the comparison of the startup time, we can see that the Win8 operating system did not disappoint us. Although the interface is not very used, I think this process has been experienced from the DOS era to the XP era. However, the start time of only 13 seconds is very gratifying.

From the installation process of Win8, I feel that the steps are basically the same as those of Win7. There are only a few few steps that need to be set. The rookies who don't understand can skip the skip, so the installation is not too big a problem. The biggest problem is that more new features and new interfaces are difficult to adapt. I started to find out where the shutdown button is, and made a sweat. However, new products always replace the old ones, so for Win8 is still a development trend, I believe that the final version of Win8 can bring users a better experience, especially in the field of touch, to better play their own advantages.
