  1. Installing windows on a new computer


    Hello, this might be a little confusing but I am about to build a new computer from scratch. The only thing I'm keeping is my graphics card, internal HD and portable SSD. Windows is installed on my HD in the old computer and my goal is to install it on a fresh SSD in the new computer. However I'm not planning on installing a disk drive in the new one.


    I have a licensed WinPro 8 64bit DVD which I have used a couple of times to reinstall windows clean on the current rig. I just go through the process of installing windows 8 then going into the app store to find windows 10 then upgrading it to the current version.


    I have thought about building the computer and taking the disk drive and plugging it in just to install windows then removing it afterwards. I do not know if that would be easier or harder than doing the USB thing which I don't know how to do.


    Please give your thoughts or insight on if you have installed windows on a desktop computer without a disk drive or with one just to remove the drive later.

    :)

    Step 1
    reinstall windows from scratch
    Step 2
    install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
    go back to using your pc without issue.

    Windows 7 wont install drivers

    +1

    If you having an issue installing a driver that worked before you formatted or wont install on a fresh build, sometimes this means hardware damage
