In this exercise, you perform a clean installation of Windows XP Professional. If you need to perform an upgrade instead (not recommended), you will perform many of the same steps, but you must enter the Setup program differently. See your instructor for help.

1. Insert the Microsoft Windows XP Professional CD in the CD drive on your computer.
2. The Setup.exe program should launch automatically. If it does not, navigate to the CD drive, and double click Setup.exe.
3. On the first Setup screen, click Enter to begin the setup












4. On the End User License Agreement page, click F8 to accept the license agreement.












5. The next page lets you select your partitioning option.

The partition will be formatted, and the computer will restart in graphical user interface (GUI) mode.
7. On the Regional and Language Options page, select the appropriate options, and then click Customize to change the locale or keyboard settings from the default. Locale settings affect how numbers, currencies, and dates appear. When you are finished, click Next.

Installing in a Workgroup: If the school does not have a domain, but you want this computer to be networked with other local computers, enter the name of a workgroup that contains those other computers.
Installing in a Domain: If your school has a domain, and you want to join the computer to it, you need to provide domain credentials (a user name and password) for a domain user account that is allowed to join computers to the domain. By default, each user with an account in a domain can join up to 10 computers to the domain.Once you have made your selection, click Next. The computer will restart
14. At first logon, you are prompted to activate this copy of Windows XP Professional. If you are connected to the Internet, select Activate Now. If the computer is not connected to the Internet, ask your instructor how to activate this copy of Windows XP Professional. If you fail to Activate Windows XP Professional within 30 days of installation, it will become unusable until activated.
