I just ordered a laptop and didn't order an OS with it. I bought Windows 7 separately for $30 after using the student discount. I copied the .exe to a flash drive (my new usb 3.0!) and wrote down the product code.
So I'm wondering about how exactly the install process will work, with there being no OS on the laptop. I'm thinking I'll plug it in, turn it on and hit F11 at the start up to go into BIOS. Then I'll change the BIOS settings to boot from the flash drive, restart the computer and install Win7. Does this sound about right? Thanks.
