How to - Install the Windows 8 Consumer Preview
The next big OS from Microsoft is almost ready and we’ve been anticipating its arrival for a while now. So, the final release is still sometime away, from release but the second major preview that was expected early this year is here. MWC 2012 is almost over and Microsoft has gone ahead and ed up the gates for users to download and try out the new platform.
The first build - the Windows 8 Developer Preview was made available for download in September 2011. The Windows 8 Consumer Preview is a more refined build and is something that should be functional till early 2013. So, let’s quickly look at how to download and install the operating tem on your PC. We’ll start by first explaining how to install Windows 8 on a clean tem and then, also how to upgrade your Windows 7 operating tem to Windows 8 without losing too many settings.
However, before starting, we suggest you backup any important data and applications just in case.
Download Windows 8 Consumer Preview
The first step is of course, to download the operating tem. Microsoft has setup a download page from where you can download a tool that will check your hardware and software to see if they’re compatible with Windows 8. If you want more information on the tem requirements for Windows 8, head over to one of our news on the official availability of the preview. The tool then downloads Windows 8 for you. You also have the option to download disc images (ISO images) and burn them on a disc and install it. There are 32-bit and 64-bit builds available on this page. Microsoft has also provided a serial key that can be used to install the operating tem.
