Request an ISO for the initial setup.
Hello everyone, before diving into the PC building process, I’ve already planned my build. I chose not to opt for an optical drive or operating system since it would save around $80 to $100. I’ve been searching online for a "ISO image file" to convert files into USB format. In this video: http://youtu.be/f4e4HujCeg8?t=1m3s it mentions the source is from MSD, but I couldn’t locate a file there. I installed the USB/DVD download tool, which requests an ISO image, though I don’t have one. I tried checking: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windo...t-key-only, but it still doesn’t make sense. Can I just download that file and save it to a USB drive? Then when I buy the product key from G2A, I can enter it? How do I install an OS on the system if there’s no OS yet and no optical drive? I’m really new to this, so please don’t laugh at me. Cheers.
You simply save the provided link to a USB drive and insert it while installing. That completes the process.
Check the official Microsoft forum for Windows 7 installation help.
Choose Windows 8.1 instead of Windows 7 because it performs better for gaming and requires fewer utilities.
