Install Operating System and Drivers

for Peripheral / Devices
I - INTRODUCTION

The installation process of Windows 10 has two main parts, including the setup and
out-of-box experience (OOBE). In the setup process, that's where you will select some of the
basic settings, and you'll find the options to erase the hard drive, configure the partitions, and
clean install Windows 10. The out-of-box experience happens after the setup is complete, and
it's the stage where you'll configure your settings, such as region, network, account, privacy,
and other settings.
Once you went through the preparation instructions, the clean install of Windows 10 is
actually a straightforward process.

At the end of this module, you should be able to:

• Install window 10
