The perfect strategy to install Win8 on mobile hard disk

The Win8 system is a relatively new system, and many system users have already tried to install the latest system on their own computers. Friends complain that it is always too much trouble to install a new system. In fact, our Win8 has a significant feature, which is to support booting in a USB device, which means that we can carry this system with us.

First, you need to do the following settings:

1. Computer & ndash; Right & ndash; Management & ndash; Disk, to ensure that there is a large enough space in the hard disk, or separate a piece of 5- 10GB of space comes out. Then in Windows System Management, set this partition to active state in Disk Management:

2. Then read the ISO with a virtual CD-ROM drive and copy all the files inside it to this partition (including hidden files). Or we can also prepare a DVD9 disk, burn (not recommended, domestic is not good to buy, and buy is not necessarily easy to use) or we can also through the network, local disk sharing, etc., through a boot disk boot and then access Running Winload.exe I haven't tested it, not necessarily a good one.

3. Start the installation: First check if your computer motherboard supports USB device booting. If it is, you can choose to boot through USB when booting, you can successfully enter the Windows 8 DP installation interface.

(Note: If you can't enter normally, for example, he reports HAL errors, etc., then you can only congratulate, your hardware is too avant-garde, it does not support.)

When you successfully enter the selection partition, you need to press Shift + F10 to bring up the command line. OK, we need to create VHD (Virtual Hard Disk) and mount VHD.

Use the command line DIR to find a large enough partition on the existing partition, personally recommend to find a partition with more than 50GB of free space, remember his drive letter, such as D drive, enter DISKPART tool, command line input DISKPART.

Use the command create vdisk file=”d:win8.vhd” type=expandable maximum=50000 to create a VGB file with a maximum space of 50GB in D: (of course, you can also use a fixed size type) =fixed).

You must be reminded that you should not think that he is dynamically adding space, I can create it in a partition with less than 50GB left. If so, although the general virtual machine can read and boot this VHD. System or file, but booting directly through the physical machine or not, because the boot starts when she wants to create a logical partition according to the VHD settings, so if you are less than 50GB, and he still takes 50GB of space , it will report an error with insufficient space. So be sure to remember to choose a partition with enough space and then set a reasonable maximum.
