1. Gorgeously put the Windows8 consumer preview into your own C drive! Cover the Win7 or XP of the previous C drive. (Tutorial)
2. In the Win8 Win7 XP or other disc loaded into, or XP is formed and Win8 Win7 dual system. (Tutorial) (Tutorial)
3. pure experience or need to write tutorials shots, using a virtual machine vm or vbox install Windows8. (Tutorial)
wanted to write within a few days after the release of Win8 Consumer Preview can help you choose their own way and preferences of the PC experience to install Windows8 Windows8. But have not been able Write time to write out, the following into the topic.
above first way for this case friends: If you have at least two computers, because even after one installed Win8 failed to scrap or installed Win8 because of compatibility issues are not well The use will not affect your work and study, because you have another computer at hand, you can use it to solve the problem of the computer, you can learn and work normally.
only install Win8 single system problem rarely occurs, promptly appeared relatively easy to solve, such as your C drive is less than 16GB or 20GB (64 Wei Win8 requirements), this problem can go through a lot of software re Partition, modify the total capacity of the C drive, etc.
choose this way also point to note is that you should not install several large programs installed on this computer Win8, nor very important information, if there are removable hard disk, can back up important files, That would be great!
second way above most recommended, because the two systems will not destroy the original Win7, XP system that will not affect your normal use. Although some students have installed Win8, the boot problem caused Win7 to enter, this can be fixed, the problem is not big. Each system of the dual system or even the three systems is relatively independent. As long as your hard disk is large enough, nothing is a problem. In addition, if the computer of the working unit is carefully installed, the reason is that you want it! It is also possible to encounter a more common problem is that the dual system is equipped with Win8. The activation of the previous Win7 Ultimate will be invalid. Don't worry, what used to do before, and then again.
dual system installed Win8 have a variety of similar methods, such as hard disk installed, install the virtual drive, U disk installation, Pe installation and so on, I personally recommend the installation of a U-disk, if you have 4GB of U disk one, then refer to

This article makes the U disk into a system disk, generally speaking, the installation will be smoother! Divide a 20GB or larger drive letter in advance and format it. It is convenient to choose this drive letter to put Win8 into it!
above third way is to use a vbox virtual machine to install Win8! If you have a computer at hand, the space is not very good, work, study needs and can not be separated from this computer, and you do not have such a strong desire for Win8, just want to personally try it, look at the long look! Or the editors of each website need to write tutorials, do tests, etc., and take screenshots. They will also be installed on the computer with a virtual machine. In this case, regardless of success or failure, it will not affect your current system, it is safe enough. But it is also the easiest to fail because of the different settings of the PC.
