Windows 10: Error installing Windows 10 on the computer

Hello...


I'm trying to reinstall Windows 10 Home on my Dell Dimension E521 (4GB RAM/AMD Sempron 3400+ (1.80GHz) processor); at the point where it asks me to select the region, it gives me a 1-word message - OOBEREGION. I have tried clicking Try Again many times and then finally clicked Skip. Afterwards, I get 1-word messages such as OOBEKEYBOARD, OOBENETWORK, OOBELOCAL, & a more than a few others that I can't recall right now.


I've heard there's a way to create an "answer file" to "pre-load" the data that OOBE is trying to gather, but it seems rather complex for a home user like myself to do. Can anyone please point me to some form of support (step-by-step, if possible) on how to do this so my computer will stop the "OOBE thing"? I just simply want to be able to use Windows 10 Home on my PC again (it had it before, but crashed; I tried to reinstall it and ran into the same situation described in this paragraph, so I got frustrated, went to Linux Mint 19, then Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, & now I'm trying to go back to Windows 10 Home (the Linux GRUB bootloader has been removed and the drive boots up fine - until the OOBE gets involved, then it's a continual loop). I can go back to Linux Mint or Ubuntu, but I'd prefer not to since my other device (an RCA laptop/tablet hybrid) also runs Windows 10 Home.


Thanks in advance.

Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
