    Installing Windows 10 on a PC that has been wiped


    I need help installing Windows 10 on an old work laptop the company let me have for personal use. The laptop was wiped and on the screen it just says it cannot find the OS and to press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart. When I do that, the message just keeps popping up. I downloaded my Windows 10 on a jump drive.

    :)

    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?
