The instructions missing from this resulting ISO file may be crucial to the successful installation and subsequent use of the product, as follows: (Automatic file updates from Microsoft in addition) Write the iso file to a blank DVD5 disc with a DVD writer driver and a program that such as PowerISO (available as a separate torrent download), thereby creating a bootable installation disc. While installing windows, you will sometimes/even very often see an annoying message from the installation procedure section of the windows operating system, saying that the hard drive you want to install windows on “cannot be used with windows” (because it is partitioned using MBR or GPT – the two versions in use option) when you simply need to say that you need to switch from one type to another depending on what type of partition you need to continue. If this happens, simply open the command line at the start of the installation screen (Shift F10) and type the following commands diskpart list disk select disk 0 (if this is the correct disk number) clean (this will erase the contents of the disk – windows often it won’t go any further without the CLEAN command – saying it can’t convert if you use that command – which it doesn’t tell you to use anyway) convert MBR (or convert GPT) this last command to convert to type requires partition format windows for that installation . EXIT If the CLEAN command is not suitable for you (for example, if you want to keep some data on the hard drive, use a program like EASUS – it can also be downloaded from torrent sites) to convert the partition type before installing your copy of Windows.
