1) Shall we begin?

After configuring the system for booting from a CD, the Windows Setup screen appears.

At this point, Setup is loading the driver files it needs to continue with installation.

1) Shall we begin? (Image 1.1)

2) Welcome to Setup: 

The “Welcome to Setup” screen appears with the option of Continuing Setup, Repair a previous installation, or Quitting.

Press ENTER to Continue Setup.

You may also choose R to Repair, or F3 to Quit and reboot the system.

2) Welcome to Setup: (Image 1.2)

3) Windows XP Licensing Agreement: 

The “Windows XP Licensing Agreement” screen, otherwise known as “EULA,” displays the legal in’s and out’s of this particular software package.

You may press F8 to signify that you agree with the terms, hit ESC if you do not agree and PAGE UP or PAGE DOWN to scroll through each screen. Note: If you do not agree to the terms, setup will quit and reboot the system.

3) Windows XP Licensing Agreement: (Image 1.3)

4) Hard drive partition information:

Hard drive partition information is now displayed. This varies with each systems hardware configuration.

This example already has a partition defined. I will choose not to use this and create a new one by pressing D.
You may skip this and the next few steps if you do not have any partitions defined.

At this point, the options include pressing ENTER to Install on the selected partition, D to Delete the selected partition, or F3 to Quit and reboot the system.

4) Hard drive partition information: (Image 1.4)

5) Warning screen:

After pressing D to delete the selected partition, a warning screen appears explaining the pitfalls of deleting it. This particular screen only appears when the partition selected to be deleted is formatted as a bootable system partition. Other partitions will display the next screen.

I want this to happen, so I press ENTER to continue.

The options include pressing ENTER to continue, or ESC to Cancel.

5) Warning screen: (Image 1.5)

6) Confirmation screen:

A confirmation screen that displays the logical drive, what file system the partition is currently using, the size in MB and controller information.

Options include L to Delete the partition and ESC to Cancel the action.

6) Confirmation screen: (Image 1.6)

7) No partitions have been previously defined:

If no partitions have been previously defined, this screen will be displayed. You may section your hard drive in as many partitions as you wish by selecting C to Create a Partition and then entering in a value less then the total available. Here, I will Create a Partition in the highlighted, unused portion.

Select the partition you wish to install to using the UP arrow and DOWN ARROW keys.

Press ENTER to use the highlighted partition and Install, C to Create a Partition, or F3 to Quit and reboot the system.

7) No partitions have been previously defined: (Image 1.7)

8) Enter in the partition size:

Enter in the partition size in MB within the displayed minimum and maximum. I chose the default or maximum available here.

You may choose ENTER to Create the new partition or ESC to Cancel the action.

8) Enter in the partition size: (Image 1.8)

9) Continue to create partitions:

Continue to create partitions until all space is used or the configuration meets your requirements.
Note: a small portion will be unavailable to partition. This is normal. In this example, it is 2 MB.

I chose drive C: or Partition1 to install the Operating System.

You may choose ENTER to Install to the selected partition, D to Delete the highlighted Partition, or F3 to Quit and reboot the system.

9) Continue to create partitions: (Image 1.9)

10) Format the partition:

Since this OS supports NTFS, format the partition with it. If you do not, many folder and file security features will be unavailable. Note: If you are dual booting your system, a previous OS will not be able to read the local information. This is a fact with Windows 9x and Me. If you have a requirement to view this partition from another OS installed on the system, do not format it as NTFS. Also, the boot partition must be formatted with FAT32 if you wish to dual boot. I have found no problems accessing a NTFS partition mapped as a network drive from an older OS.

Select what format you wish to use by pressing the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW keys.

Press ENTER to confirm your selection and Continue or ESC to Cancel.

10) Format the partition: (Image 1.10)

11) Setup formats the partition:

Watch the progress bar as Setup formats the partition, or get up and get a soda. It may take awhile.

11) Setup formats the partition: (Image 1.11)

12) Creating File List:

Setup is now figuring out what files to copy over to the hard drive.

12) Creating File List: (Image 1.12)

13) Setup copies various files:

After the partition is finished formatting, Setup copies various files to support booting from the hard drive and continue on.

13) Setup copies various files: (Image 1.13)

14) Creates various information files:

Setup then creates various information files required to continue on with setup.

14) Creates various information files: (Image 1.14)

15) Press ENTER to Restart:

The first reboot and the end of the blue background has arrived. If you are impatient, press ENTER to Restart before the 15 seconds expire.

ENTER to Restart the Computer is the only option available.

15) Press ENTER to Restart: (Image 1.15)

16) Windows XP boot screen:

The new Windows XP boot screen is displayed.

16) Windows XP boot screen: (Image 2.1)

17) Windows XP Installation:

If you have installed Windows before, this type of screen will look familiar.

Sit back. It may be awhile.

17) Windows XP Installation: (Image 2.2)

18) Faster and more reliable:

Every Windows OS that comes out has the same claim. Faster and better. It is subject to debate whether or not it could get “any worse.”

18) Faster and more reliable: (Image 2.3)

19) Region and Input Languages:

A little while later, you will be prompted with options of configuring your Region and Input Languages. The default was fine for me, so I selected Next.

Options include Customize button, Details Button, plus the standard Back and Next.

19) Region and Input Languages: (Image 2.4)

20) Enter in your Name:

Enter in your Name and optional Organization information, then select the Next button.

20) Enter in your Name: (Image 2.5)

21) 25 digit Product Key:

Thought you could get away from it? Think again.

Enter your unique 25 digit Product Key that came with your CD, then select the Next button.

21) 25 digit Product Key: (Image 2.6)

22) Enter a Computer name and an Administrator Password:

The “suggested” name for the computer is always really whacked out. Choose one that meets your needs.

Enter an Administrator Password now. It is VERY IMPORTANT that you keep this information safe and remember what it is! “01Pa$$word” is not a good choice. Think of something secure and never lose or forget it.

22) Enter a Computer name and an Administrator Password: (Image 2.7)

23) Date, Time and Time Zone:

Configure the proper information for the Date, Time and Time Zone here.

23) Date, Time and Time Zone: (Image 2.8)

24) Network is installing:

Wait here while the Network is installing. You could read all the marketing dribble, but I do not recommend it. 

24) Network is installing: (Image 2.9)

25) Network Settings Dialog:

The Network Settings Dialog is next. Under usual circumstances, the Typical settings are fine, but I never choose them so I can poke around under the hood. I selected Custom settings here.

Choose your method and select the Next button.

25) Network Settings Dialog: (Image 3.1)

26) Custom settings:

In the Custom settings, many options are abound. I cannot go into all of them here, but I will hit on the high points.

26) Custom settings: (Image 3.2)

27) QoS Packet Scheduler:

QoS Packet Scheduler is not required unless your network uses it.

For this system, I will choose to uncheck it.

27) QoS Packet Scheduler: (Image 3.3)

28) TCP/IP Properties:

TCP/IP Properties contains the standard options. Adjust them for your particular needs as required. For now, I kept the default settings. Basically, it is using DHCP to configure TCP/IP. If you are using a static IP address, enter in the proper information here.

Select the Advanced button to further configure your TCP/IP options.

28) TCP/IP Properties: (Image 3.4)

29) Workgroup or Computer Domain:

Workgroup or Computer Domain, that is the question. I am not going to set up this system to connect to a domain controller, so I will place it as a member of a workgroup.

Please, change “WORKGROUP” to something else. I hate defaults. 

Select the Next button after making your choice.

29) Workgroup or Computer Domain: (Image 3.5)

30) Install screen:

The system will reboot after all files have been copied over to the install partition. Now may be a good time to take a break. It may be awhile.

30) Install screen: (Image 3.6)

31) Windows XP is starting up:

The moment we have all been waiting for, Windows XP Professional is starting up “for the first time.” Remember that quoted statement with Windows 95 setup?

31) Windows XP is starting up: (Image 4.1)

32) Display Settings Pop-up:

Windows XP no longer likes the “default” resolution of 640 x 480 and prompts you of that fact.

Select OK to continue.

32) Display Settings Pop-up: (Image 4.2)

33) Please wait:

800 x 600 is a wonderful thing, however, I chose to have it time out and return to 640 x 480 for this guide.

33) Please wait: (Image 4.3)

34) Login to the Administrator account:

With the “Welcome” screen, you no longer have to hit the “Three Finger Salute” combination of Ctrl+Alt+Delete to login to the Administrator account.

You did remember your password, right?!?

34) Login to the Administrator account: (Image 4.4)

35) Applying computer settings:

Please wait while the Administrator account is configured “for the first time.”

No. I will not mention Windows 95 again…

35) Applying computer settings: (Image 4.5)

36) Display Settings Pop-up:

Since the initial screen resolution is set to 640 x 480, a balloon dialog appears. You may click the pop-up balloon to raise the resolution up to 800 x 600 automatically. For the rest of this guide, I chose to ignore it.

36) Display Settings Pop-up: (Image 4.6)

37) Windows XP tour:

Click the balloon dialog to start a tour of Windows XP.

Even if you do not wish to see the information, you should click on the balloon to get rid of the annoyance in a timely fashion.

37) Windows XP tour: (Image 5.1)

38) Windows XP Tour dialog:

Windows XP Tour dialog popup is shown.

Select the Cancel button to never see it again.

38) Windows XP Tour dialog: (Image 5.2)

39) .NET Passport Wizard:

Double-Click the Messenger Icon in the bottom right (system tray) and the “.NET Passport Wizard” dialog appears.

Select Cancel to not sign up for Passport at this time.

39) .NET Passport Wizard: (Image 5.3)

40) Windows Messenger:

With the .NET Passport Wizard gone, the Windows Messenger is opened.

40) Windows Messenger: (Image 5.4)

41) Windows Messenger Tools:

Select Tools, then Options.

41) Windows Messenger Tools: (Image 5.5)

42) Messenger Preferences:

In the Options window, select the Preferences Tab.

Uncheck “Run this program when Windows starts” and “Allow this program to run in the background.” Of course, if you wish to keep Windows Messenger, do not do this step.

42) Messenger Preferences: (Image 5.6)

43) Close Messenger:

Now you can select the Close button and Messenger will be unloaded from memory.

43) Close Messenger: (Image 5.7)

44) That is all!

That’s all there is to it! I hope this guide helped you out or gave you a sneak peek at what is to come. More information
