Quest1: Install Window XP

These screenshots are from others because I didn't know how to take screenshots during installation of Window XP. This installation process is easy even though I have never done this before. You can just follow the directions.

1. Place the Window XP CD in the CD-ROM drive and then restart the computer.

2. When restarted the computer, put F12(it may be a different key on each computer) and then choose CD/DVD to boot.

3. Press ENTER to setup Window XP.
4. Partition (if you need to seperate) the hard drive. (This part was too hard for me) I wanted to install 3 systems - Window XP, Ubuntu desk top, and Ubuntu server - so I need to partition.
Directly put the nember of sizes on each partition.

5. Choose a system to format each partition. Window XP needs NTFS file system. It takes for a while to format a partition. Then, it is almost done.
6. After this step, you can follow the asking direction. Set up regional and language option, your name, password, networking, etc.
7. The computer is restarted and then finally installed. (Then set up the internet access and other options)
