Installing an operating system on a blank PC can be intimidating, especially if you're not tech-savvy. However, with the right guide and a bit of patience, the process can be relatively straightforward. In this step-by-step guide, we will walk you through the process of installing an operating system on a blank PC. Let's get started!

What You'll Need

Before we begin, make sure you have the following items ready:

  • A blank PC without any operating system.
  • An operating system installation disk or USB drive.
  • A working computer with internet access.
  • A USB drive (if you are using a USB installation).

Step 1: Prepare for Installation

First, check if your blank PC meets the minimum requirements for the operating system you want to install. Visit the official website of the operating system or consult its documentation for the specific requirements.

Once you know your PC meets the requirements, download the installation file from the official website of the operating system. If you have a disk, insert it into the optical drive of your computer.

Step 2: Set Up the Boot Order

Next, you need to ensure that your PC boots from the installation media. To do this, access the BIOS settings by pressing the appropriate key during startup (usually Delete or F2). Once in the BIOS settings, navigate to the Boot tab and set the boot order to prioritize the device containing your installation media (either the optical drive or the USB drive) as the first boot device.

Step 3: Begin the Installation

Save the changes in the BIOS settings and restart your PC. It should now boot from the installation media. Follow the on-screen prompts to begin the installation process. Make sure to carefully read and understand each step before proceeding.

During the installation, you will be prompted to choose the installation type, select a partition, and format the disk. If you are unsure, it is generally safe to choose the default options. Be aware that formatting the disk will erase all existing data, so make sure to back up any important files beforehand.

Step 4: Complete the Installation

After selecting the installation type and partition, the operating system installation will begin. This process may take a while, so be patient and let it complete. Your PC may restart multiple times during the installation.

Once the installation is finished, your PC will reboot. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your user account, time zone, and other preferences. Congratulations, you have successfully installed an operating system on your blank PC!

Step 5: Install Device Drivers

After the operating system is installed, you may need to install device drivers for your hardware components, such as the graphics card, sound card, or network adapter. Visit the manufacturer's website for each component and download the appropriate drivers for your operating system version.

Once downloaded, install the device drivers one by one, following the provided instructions. Restart your PC after each driver installation to ensure they take effect.

Installing an operating system on a blank PC doesn't have to be a daunting task. By following this step-by-step guide, you can confidently install an operating system and have your PC up and running in no time. Remember to always back up your important files and consult the official documentation of your chosen operating system if you encounter any issues. Happy installing!
