Here's the situation, everything is new apart from the HDD. It's an old HDD which is from a older system and currently has vista installed on it.
I have a new copy of windows 7 64bit that I'm going to use to format the HDD during installation of windows 7.
The question I have is ,
1.what is going to happen when I hit that power button the first time?
2.Is it going to attempt to load vista and what damage will it cause?
3. Will I need to press the reset button once the official checks are done when you 1st power on so I can get to bios or can I just spam F2 when I first power on and get into bios to select boot from optical drive before it attempts to load vista?
Hope someone can help as I'm just waiting for the DVD drive to be delivered and then I will be powering on.
