I am building a new computer...

[AND1]

I am trying to build a new computer which I have never done before and I have a few questions for you guys. I think it's pretty much straight forward to building one but what happens when everything is together and ready... do you just turn it on and install windows? I haven't found any info on this. Is the part from the finished installing everything to installing windows hard? Can anyone point me to a nice guide or anything?

Also on a side note. I am thinking about opening an internet cafe kind of place in Greece. Don't laugh when you hear 'internet cafe' but they are pretty popular there since alot of people dont have computers and there are like 2-3 right now which are crowded every single day. I need to read up on servers and networking which I know nothing about yet. By the way my question was how many computer can I hook up or network togther with Windows XP Pro?

with regards to your first question, about what to do when you have put the oc together:

once you are sure everything has been installed correctly, go into the MB bios and make sure that it scans the CD drive, boot the pc up and place the Win XP CD into the CD drive, it should scan the drive and ask you what you want to do:

basically just format the hard drive to the correct partition (Windows' NTFS system) and then install Windows m8,

2 tell u the truth if u want a better guide (i suck lol) then u could either try out www.futuremark.com- this site is mainly for overclocking but it may have some good hints or just searching in google m8

Where do you think you'll be setting up your café? If you really want and exotic place I suggest Naxos or even the little island of Koufonissi. I've been to both and visited their internet cafes and they aren't that special. Let me know more about this!
