WINDOWS INSTALLATION
As with any OS installation, you must first plan the installation
process. When you run the Windows 7 Setup program, you must provide
information about how to install and configure the operating system.
Thorough planning can make your installation of Windows 7 more efficient
by helping you to avoid potential problems during installation. An
understanding of the configuration options will also help to ensure that
you have properly configured your system.

Types of Installation
1. Upgrade (In-place upgrade) - This option replaces your current version
of Windows with Windows 7, and keeps your files, settings, and
programs in place on your computer.
2. Custom ("fresh" installation) - This option replaces your current
version of Windows with Windows 7, but doesn't preserve your files,
settings, and programs. It's sometimes referred to as a clean
installation for that reason.
Installation Process
1. Boot the computer using the bootable windows installation disc from
the DVD- ROM.
2. Your first step is to choose the language, time/currency format and

Device Drivers
After you successfully installed the operating system, you will need
to configure the devices such as Video Cards, Network Interface Card,
Sound Cards, and so on by installing their device drivers. In many cases,
the drivers will be automatically installed if the Windows recognizes the
device. In some cases, drivers are installed so that the device will work
properly.
Drivers are small software programs that help the operating system
use or “drive” the device.

Steps in Installing Drivers
