Windows 8 is the latest and most advanced operating system available from Microsoft today and it seems like you are interested in installing Windows 8 for your device to explore its full potential by yourself.As Windows 8 is fully loaded with wonderful apps and new features you might be little confused that this might be a hard job to do.But never.It is much easier than its previous versions I would say.

Also I would recommend a clean install of Windows 8 on your device as this is the better way to make the maximum performance out of it.Though Windows provide an Upgrade from its previous versions I wouldn't recommend that unless you are that much in need of keeping it.

For installing Windows 8 you need to have the installation package of Windows 8 with you.This may be the Windows 8 DVD or a downloaded version.You can use the installation disk directly by inserting it into the optical drive.If you lack an optical drive then you can use a downloaded version to create a bootable USB flash drive for installation.

Also before doing a clean install on your device there are some more important things to do.


Back up your important data:

A clean install will surely erase all your data on disks.So it is important to back up your data into an external disk.Back up your documents,music,videos etc.The installed programs on your operating system will also be gone.So you should back up any data associated with your programs for retaining it later.Also the installation packages of programs if available can also be taken back up for future installation.

Locate your Product Key:

Product key is a 25-digit alphanumeric code and it is important for installing Windows 8 installation.So locate your product key and keep it with you before starting the Installation.
You can find your product key with the DVD media if you purchase it retail or in your email confirmation if you purchase it online as a Windows 8 Download.Also if your Windows 8 comes preinstalled on your device then product key will be found on the sticker on your device.

Set the Boot Priority:

You need to change the boot priority to the required media for starting the installation.If you are using a DVD,set it to the CD/DVD media or if using a flash drive set it to USB or Flash device from your BIOS settings.To enter into the BIOS settings restart your device and press "DELETE" continuousl while the device is starting up until your BIOS screen shows up.If you missed it then restart again and repeat the same above.

Now let's get started with Installing Windows 8.

Step 1: Boot from the Windows Installation Media:

Start your installation by inserting your Windows 8 DVD to the optical drive or plug in your flash drive into your device ,then restart your device.

Once the device restarts it prompts a message "Press any key to boot from CD/DVD...."if using a DVD or "Press any key to boot from an external device" if using a flash drive.
Press any key to start the installation media.

Note:If you didn't see the message above and your device is starting with your current OS then you might not have set the boot priority right.Restart the device to set the boot priority as explained above.
