BIOS Settings, Install Order

When building a new system, and installing a new motherboard, HDD, PSU and Graphics card....What do I do once I turn it on for the first time..

A) Install OS First?
B) Install Motherboard Drivers First?
C) Enter BIOS and change Boot Sequences?

I just want to make sure I do it right this time, so once everything is installed, what are the next steps I take, to booting it up. Thanks guys.

 

OS first then boot to windows and install mobo drives and eveything else... I have formated many times and that is the way i have done it and no problems as of yet

 

Roger that. So the very first time I start up my brand new system....Just go into BIOS change the Boot Sequence to boot from the CD, then put in Windows CD and restart...install windows, then change boot sequence to check A:, D:, C: take CD out, restart, go into windows, load MOBO drivers, and all other neseccary drivers there after. Got it, thanks.

 

yup thats how its done

 

Thank you much, appreciated as always,

 

so if he follows these steps, the mobo auto detects the bios settings, i always buy used motherboards because i dont know how to set up the bios, just the basic. if i buy a new motherboard, i dont have to do much in the bios?? or would i have to do all this setup stuff. i have read the guide, it dont make no sence to me. thanks

 

The first thing like to do as well, enter bios and check cpu temps, usually for a few minutes just to make sure nothing is heating up, then go ahead with the install.
