Yesterday, we began wiping harddrives off computers, adding partitions and then adding Windows. This all required a number of steps, but did you know just how many pre-installment tasks there are, and what you need to check in order to do this?
1. Requirements:
CPU, RAM, HD, GPU, Display
Before anything: your comp needs to match with the components you’re adding on.
You might need to install more storage.
Put hard drives into USB.
2. Setup wizard checks out the system
Used to check conditions. Microsoft compatibility center checks out hardware
devices
Vista added an online windows logo product list
3. Multiboot has more than one OS
4. Determine how to back up existing data
Migrating versions using files and transfers wizard using XP
5. Determine installation method
An image deployment, as long as you have an identical machine, it’ll work. It’s
called imagine ghosting
6. Multiboot might require a different partition
7. PC doesn’t participate in the network
8. Location affects the currency formats and math separated display
I like the amount of info you put into your work. Good job Kim.
ReplyDeleteMultiboots DO require a different partition. You're basically separating the hard drive into two (or many more) individual boxes, and you can fill each of those boxes with it's own operating system. When you power on the computer it will give you a list of OS's to boot from!
