How to Install Windows 7 Guide

Recommended Posts

Shouldn't most of the people (or all?) on this site already know how to install windows?

People who post on the forum are dwarfed by people who read the articles in terms of numbers. :)

There are people who've never been to the forums but may have visited OCC 1,000 times or only visited it once and just happened across the guides, articles, reviews via a search engine.

I'd say that's an extremely useful default feature.

One recommendation I'd like to make on the guide.  Please add a sentence or paragraph that tells the user to disconnect other storage devices except for the one that will hold the OS.  If you have multiple hard drives in your system, Windows will want to write some boot files to one of the other drives.  If you pull that drive, reformat that drive, or that drive fails you end up with a non-booting system - even though the majority of the Windows install is on the primary drive that you specified.
