nutpuk Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Hi all, As you can tell I'm new here. And Im sorry if I missed the thread with this info. But my PC parts in my sig arrive tomo. I can't wait to build it and I know it will take time. But to be honest im nervous and after all the info to make it go smooth as possible. I'm just wondering if you experienced guys could give me some tips from taking it out the box to installing windows XP. Im not new to computers but I am new to tweaking etc. I dont want to overclock it yet till its all installed (and i play fear hehe) and i research it a bit more. I found this http://www.dfi-street.com/forum/showthread.php?t=20832 which will help but Ive got a few things Im stuck on and also just wondering what other steps to take. Im just wondering things I need to know: like do i need to reset the cmos? Are there any alterations to the bios before installing windows? When do I update the bios? When in windows I will then install the latest AMD X2 drivers and NF4 drivers? Hope you can help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
