How to boot from the disk on the computer. What is the net download of Windows

Recently, Microsoft is trying to translate all users to its new versions of operating systems actively imposing it through updates.

They should improve the system, but it turns out that they are more harm than good. In terms of security, they will not replace the antivirus and quite often they are introducing tracking modules.

I have not installed any updates for several years and everything is fine with my laptop. There were no hacks, errors and problems because of this. Therefore, I recommend doing the same as me. There are a certain number of reasons for this, and not just my recommendation.

Negative sides:

1. They have fun modules for users ( telemetry) And many do not like it.
2. Sometimes there are errors that negatively affect the performance of the system.
3. When you download, the Internet traffic is used, which means that the Internet will work slower.
4. You can not turn off the computer until they are fully loaded and installed.
5. They occupy a lot of hard disk space. This is especially relevant to hard disks with a small volume.
6. Sometimes the license flies ( pirate versions).

I think these reasons are enough to abandon them or at least get rid of unnecessary. And now I will show you how to make it quickly possible, completely and partially. It all depends on the goals you are haunting.

All actions need to be carried out under accounting Administrator. Otherwise, nothing will happen.

Partial disconnection

This method will allow you to get rid of most updates and you can install them manually, but some will still be installed automatically without your knowledge.

Go to Start \u003e\u003e Control Panel \u003e\u003e Select a display in large icons and go to the center windows updates Or you can find it through the search in the Start menu.

Then select Setting the settings in the left column.

Now you need to configure everything. Select "Do not check the availability of updates" and remove all the checkboxes below:

You can also watch the video as it all is done per minute.

After the actions made automatically, nothing will be installed, but Windows 7 still be able to install some updates ( which will be considered the most important) . To avoid this, you should stop and disable the service responsible for it.

Turning off to the end

This method will help completely disable the ability to install new updates. Go to the Control Panel \u003e\u003e Administration \u003e\u003e Services:

Find the Windows Update List in the list and right-click on it. IN context menu Go to its properties.

Set it the start type as "disabled" and stop the service if it works. Confirm the changes.

Now nothing will be installed. Do similar actions if you want to return everything back.

Should I install new updates?

Each user sooner or later faces the need to install the operating system. There is a myth that it is difficult to do it yourself, although in fact it is not. All that is needed is to have the basic PC user skills and follow simple instructionswill be discussed below.

Before installing

There are a number of moments that should be taken care of the start of installation.

To make it right, first of all note the following:

• select the desired version of the operating system;
• decide with its discharge;
• prepare hDD to installation;
• take care of the drivers.

If you read this article, with the choice of version of the OS problems it will not arise - it will be Windows 7. But what about its discharge? How to find out what exactly suitable for your PC?

You may encounter two types of systems:

• x86 (32bit);
• x64 (64bit).

What are their differences? 32 bit supports up to 4 GB random access memory, and 64s - from 4 GB or more. The performance of the 64-bit system is higher, so if specifications Your PC is allowed to choose to choose it. Determine the amount of computer's RAM is very simple - it is enough to click the right mouse button on the computer icon on the desktop and the desired technical data will be displayed in the window that appears.

Important! It is necessary to consider that after selecting one or another bit, in the future, the installed programs must be optimized precisely under it.

Now you need to think about where the new one will be installed operating system. Most often, the C disk is selected for this. It should be remembered that all the data on the disk (including the desktop!) Will be permanently removed. All important files must be transferred to another drive or copied to the flash drive.

Another important point is drivers. Most often, they are complete to equipment on special disks, but if not - download them from the Internet in advance. To find required drivers You can on the official sites of video manufacturers, network cards and other PC components. Why should you take care of this in advance? Because after installation, without the driver for network cardMake it will not be possible.

Creating a disc

To start the installation process, you need a disk with Windows 7. If you have availability, you can safely go to the next step. If it is absent, then you will have to create it first. You will need an image of the operating system, as well as a program for recording. It is best to give your preference "clean" MSDN assemblies that were not strongly modified. Recording from the image is no different from working with a regular disk. This can be done, for example, the Ultraiso program.

For this you need:

Installing Windows 7 from a disk via bios

Go to the main process. It begins with work with the BIOS - the basic I / O system. It is the installation through BIOS that so scares novice users, but there is nothing difficult in handling. For our task, you will need to perform only a few basic manipulations.

BIOS setup

First you need to get to the BIOS:

Process itself

After restarting the system will start the inserted disk and the direct installation process will begin:

Note! If you want to install Windows 7 from a formatting disk, then take care of the preservation of data that may be lost during this procedure.

Installation will begin, usually occupying from 15 minutes before half an hour. After completion, the system will offer to enter the username and password (optional), as well as install the phrase-tip to restore them. Further will be prompted to enter serial numberwhich is usually located in a box with a copy of the OS. If it is missing or assembly does it automatically, skip this step.

Ahead of a few more small steps:

• indicate "Recommended" security settings;
• your time zone;
• type of network.

This installation completes and the system is almost ready for use, it remains only to configure it.

Video: Installation and Setup

System Setup

First of all, you need to activate the operating system (if it does not automatically happen during the installation process). Do not forget about it, because after 30 days, rapid reminders will begin to appear reporting on the expiration of the registration period.

How to check whether Windows is activated:

Drivers and programs

The next most important step is to install drivers. Their absence can lead to improper display of graphics, incorrect work Computer and inability to connect to the Internet. How to determine which drivers does the system need?

Often Windows 7 installs the driver for the video adapter, so it will not be in the list as unidentified. Despite this, the driver for the video card is still needed, because without it it will not work on full power (What could be noticeable for not quite correctly displaying icons on the desktop). We install it from the disk of the manufacturer or downloaded in advance from the official site.

Important! Do not forget to install the driver for network adapter, After all, it will be impossible to access the network without it.

It is worth noting that all such programs are quite effective and capable of securing your system. For the greatest efficiency from time to time it is worth changing the used antivirus. After installing it, do not forget to activate and update to get latest versions Databases capable of protecting from recent threats.

Now you can start installing the browser. Its choice also depends entirely on the personal preferences of the user. When new search engine installed, first update Flash Player., After all, it will be impossible to watch the video or listen to music on a variety of resources. This can be done in a matter of seconds on the official website.

Using a freshly installed browser, start filling the system with new programs, without any system without any:

• office applications ( Microsoft Office., OpenOffice);
• archivers (WinRar, 7-Zip);
• programs for listening to music and watch video;
• useful utilities (CCleaner);
• applications for communication (Skype, MUMBLE);
• other software you need.

Installing any operating system is a matter that requires a solid and attentive approach. Despite this, you should not be afraid. Just follow the simple instructions, and quite soon your PC will boast a new OS.

Very often the situation occurs when you need to boot with CD-DVD disc, for example, when installing Windows, or download other applications directly when you start a computer.

To make such a download you need to make small manipulations with the BIOS settings, there are no difficulties here. It takes only a couple of times to click on the keyboard keys.

Depending on your bios (AMI or Award), you can adjust it to download it from a CD-DVD disc, what kind of bios you will understand the pictures in the instructions.

In this article, I will tell you how to independently install the operating windows system 7 From disk to your computer or laptop.

I offer a detailed I. step-by-step instructions With a visual demonstration of the Windows operating system installation screenshots.

If you think that the installation of the operating system is something complicated and incomprehensible, only a specialist can cope with, then I will disappoint you: it is not true. Now you will see for yourself.

All you need to install Windows 7 (or Windows 8) is a computer or laptop, a disk with the operating system (since in this article we will install Windows from the disk), detailed instructionswhich I will give you now, and perhaps attentiveness! I hope that after installation you will not look like. 🙂

After installation, I recommend immediately install. You understand yourself - in our time of electronic payments it is very relevant. Also now (yet) Nowhere without Adobe Flash. Player.. Like it rightset read. Perhaps you will also be interested in quite nice . If you store on a computer private Information, create for it.

Important: Most of all possible problemsarising when installing Windows 7 is associated with incorrectly prepared installation disk and (or) the quality of the "Assembly OS" recorded on it. How to record the image of the operating system on the disk, you can read in the article.

Remember: If this drive is not out of the box, that is, bought in the store, then you need to use only original images from Microsoft MSDN. It is the original image that is also available on the network, like various builds, is a guarantee of the successful installation of Windows and its normal functioning.

Do not use the assembly of unknown origin. All third-party fixes, corrections, homemade assemblies You put on your own risk. The consequences may be irreversible.

Before installing Windows 7:

Remember the two main points that you need to execute before installing Windows.

First - It is to decide in advance which section hard disk A system will be installed. As a rule, in most cases it is a C: \\ disc. To remember (or create) the volume label and its size.

Remember, your desktop is entirely on a C: \\ disk, or rather, here: C: \\ Documents and Settings \\ Username \\ Desktop. Think in advance about the integrity and safety of archiving files for you, copy them from the desktop, that is, from the disk with, to another disk or flash drive.

All programs installed on the C: \\ disk will also be deleted, but this is not a reason to drag the entire folder with the programs to other disks. It is much easier to re-establish these programs on the clean system. Do not be lazy, not every day you reinstall Windows.

Second The moment is the drivers to your computer or laptop. They need to take care in advance. To most laptops, they come in the kit, but if there are no (or update), we are looking for the manufacturer's official website and download them in advance.

All you need to know about the installation of drivers, I recommend reading in the article "Installing Drivers or Five Iron Rules", which is located.

If you skip this important momentthen after installing Windows, you can stay without the Internet, because it is not a fact that windows Distribution It will initially contain drivers of your network card.

Installing Windows 7 from the disk:

Insert the disk with the Windows operating system into the drive and restart the computer. By the way, if you do not have a drive, you can install the Windows operating system using usual.

We will continue. Our task is to configure the computer download from the DVD. This can be done in 2 ways:

• 1. Select the device (DVD) in a special boot menu;
• 2. Change the boot priority to the BIOS (with HDD to DVD).

The first way, select the device in the boot menu, easier and more convenient. After installing Windows, it disappears the need to return the load from the HDD (hard disk). However, on old computers, this function is missing and in this case you have to go to the BIOS and change the priority of the download.

Start - reboot, waiting when the screen is worshiped and at the first signs of the awakening system (the appearance of the logo), press and hold the Delete key on the keyboard. Why DELETE KEY? These can be keys F1, F2, F3 + F2, F10, Ctrl + Alt + Esc, Ctrl + Alt + S, ESC.

Some universal button to enter the boot menu or to enter the BIOS does not exist, and it all depends on the manufacturer of the computer ( motherboard). The surest way is to read the instructions from the computer or from the motherboard. The table below shows a visual example of such keys.

The boot menu looks like this:

Press F10, agree and confirm the output with saving (Save and Exit) by the choice of "OK".

Phoenix-Award

Consider the second interface version. To load from the disk, you need to change the priorities so that the first device is the DVD drive. We find the "Advanced Bios Features" and the arrows switch to the first device (First Boot Device), change on CDROM.

Click F10 and confirm the output with saving (Save and EXIT).

If problems arose at this stage, then I recommend to watch this video.

We will continue. If everyone has done correctly, we will see the following window with the inscription: "Press Any Key to Boot from CD or DVD".

Here you need to press any key, for example, space. It is done only 1 time And only at this stage of installation. We see the next window with the inscription "Windows IS Loading Files".

File extraction occurs, after which we will see the inscription "Starting Windows" And the Windows 7 installation window itself. Began installing Windows!!

Select the desired language and click "Set".

Next, we need to choose the editorial board of Windows 7. Choose the one to which you have a key or which is going to activate. On laptops, it usually indicates a piece of paper with a key located on the bottom of the laptop. Entering the serial number will be a little later, it is transferred to the end of the installation.

A few words about the possibility of installing 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit windows version. If you have more than 4 GB of RAM (it is RAM, RAM, MEMORY), then we put the 64-bit, if not, then 32-bit (x86).

We will get acquainted and agree with the terms of the license. Next, we need to choose the type of installation - select "Full Installation".

Now you need to choose a section to which Windows will be installed.

If you have this section reserved by the system (note, it is still in megabytes (MB), and not gigabytes), for example, as in the next screenshot, then select the disc 0 section 2.

So that it is not so painfully painful when choosing a section, in advance before installing Windows, look at how many gigabytes takes your disc C.

If you have one partition on your hard disk and it is more than 250 GB, it will correctly create two local disk. One section is specifically for Windows (about 50-100 GB are usually removed), and the other is under the storage of your personal information (how much will remain, XXX GB).

Note: The sections you created must be referred to as disc 0 section 1, 2, 3 ..., and not "unoccupied disk space". Otherwise, the sections with such names the operating system simply will not see.

If necessary, create a section or partitions and click "Apply":

Attention: At this stage, problems may occur - when Windows 7 asks the driver for further installation or when the system does not see your hard disk to continue the installation.

Or install (if prepared) the hard disk controller driver. If you already have two or more partition on your hard disk, then the item above can be skipped. So, we chose the System section, and now we need to run formatting.

The installer warns that all of our data will be deleted. We need it, because we are interested in a clean installation of Windows. We agree and wait. Usually the entire process takes a few seconds. After formatting, we see that the free space has become more, quietly press "Next".

And here is the beginning of the installation, the process is running. You can already exhale).

We are waiting ... It usually takes 15-25 minutes. When our system is installed, it will offer to enter the username and the name of the computer. We enter.

If there is a desire, you can enter a password and a prompt. Next, Windows will offer to enter the serial number. We enter (if any). If not, we skip this step and remove the checkbox "Automatically activate when connected to the Internet".
