  1. installing Win 10 on a New Drive


    i want to install a completely clean install of windows 10 on my new hard drive i just ordered to replace my aging C drive... but i don't want to just to a copy of all the crud and files that are on the current C drive from the past 8 years

    . what is the best way to go about this? i already am using windows 10 on the current Drive.

  2. Installing the Win 10 upgrade on a new hard drive

    I have an HP computer that recently informed me that there was "no boot disk in drive and could not read the hard drive" or words to that effect. I tried to restart several times with no success. Eventually, it did nothing; no message at all. I talked to
    several "experts" and they told me I needed to buy a new version of Win 10, another said you needed a new hard drive and install Win 10. I followed these instructions but nothing happened. The were no instructions received with the new hard drive although
    it seemed fairly simple. Win 10 came with 3 steps as follows:

    1. Insert USB into device port.

    2. Power on computer and configure it to boot from USB drive.

    3. If prompted enter your product key.

    I didn't get past Nr 2.

    How do I do Nr 2 when the computer reacts to nothing.

    Any ideas what is wrong.
