  1. Installing Win 11 from bootable installer on new SSD


    Hello MS community.I have a senior friend who's got a 2 year old Thinkpad with a Ryzen that took the Windows 11 upgrade last fall and a few days ago, the hard drive - a 5400 rpm spinning disk in what is a gaming laptop who does that? is failing/failed. I think friend - who's 90 - got taken in by the shop she bought the machine at.. seriously, it's a kicking gaming laptop.. with a 5400 spinning disk. WTH? Anyhow, my experience with Windows installations from a bootable USB is rather limited - I'm a Mac user, and for that platform, activation is not an issue, so it's fairly straight up insta

    :)

    Bootable Vista Installer

    I have a friend who has a Vista Home Premium key (from the bottom of his laptop) and his HDD crapped out so he ordered a new one. His repair disks didn't work and neither of us have CD's with a large enough capacity to store the files we 'found' on the interwebz, so I'm trying to install it from a bootable USB.

    I got up to the step where I successfully turned the USB into an active partition, but I ran into a problem the moment I needed to access the boot sector.

    Can someone kindly walk me through the steps?

    Installing Win 11 from bootable installer on new SSD

    Looking for tutorial for fresh install of win10 home on new ssd

    I looked over the tutorial for custom installation of win 10 but it had many steps about microsoft accounts that I'm not sure are applicable to me.

    I have a new pc with a brand new ssd (sata) and I have made a bootable usb drive with win10 installation files on it.

    I'd like to use a step by step guide of how to install the os, including if I need to format the ssd and whether I need to do anything special during the installation in order to be able to boot in UEFI bios.
