    How do I install Windows 10 on a PC that has no O/S?


    ScreenshotHi, I'll try to explain myself as concisely as possible. I bought a refurbished Dell desktop PC that came preloaded with Linux Mint. Disliking Linux and being unaware of the correct way in which to proceed, I blindly erased Linux with the intent of simply booting up with a Windows 10 installation USB stick. Someone created such a disc for me; now when I boot up my computer from it, I get the error captured in the screenshot link I posted at the top of this message. I'm unable to upload and post photos here because I'm on a mobile device.Can someone please guide me toward a solution

    :)

    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?
