Detta står i "What to know before installing Windows", vilket finns i första menyn om du kör igång Vista-skivan medan du är i Windows. (Orkar inte fixa formatteringen, läs direkt på skivan om det inte duger).

EDIT: Står lite annan matnyttig info där också, så är nog bäst att läsa igenom det först.

To install a new, or “clean,” copy of Windows Vista
When you install a new, or “clean,” copy of Windows, your existing version of Windows, including all of your files, settings, and programs, is automatically replaced. You can back up your files and settings, but you must manually reinstall your programs when the installation is done.
Install a new or “clean,” copy of Windows if:
· Your current operating system cannot be upgraded to Windows Vista.
· Your computer has no operating system installed.
· You don’t want to keep your existing files, settings, and programs.
· You want to partition your hard disk and install Windows Vista on a specific partition.

1. Turn on your computer, insert the Windows installation disc into your computer's DVD or CD drive, and then do one of the following:
· If your computer already has an operating system installed and you don't want to create, extend, delete, or format partitions, go to step 2.
· If your computer has no operating system installed, or if you want to create, extend, delete, or format partitions, you need to restart your computer while the installation disc is inserted in the DVD or CD drive. Your computer will then start from the installation disc. If you are asked to press a key to start from DVD or CD, press any key. If the Install Windows page is displayed, go to step 2.
· If the Install Windows page is not displayed and you're not asked to press a key to start from DVD or CD, you might have to specify that your computer use its DVD or CD drive as the startup device. This means that you need to set the DVD or CD drive to be the first startup device in the basic input/output system (BIOS). Here's how to do that:
a. Turn on your computer, insert the Windows installation disc, and then restart your computer.
b. Newer computers usually display a startup or "boot” menu. On the startup menu, select "BIOS setup," or "BIOS settings," or something similar, and then press the appropriate key when prompted to display the BIOS setup screen.
Warning Updating the BIOS is an advanced procedure, and if an error occurs, your computer could stop working. Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions exactly.
Note Procedures for updating the BIOS vary depending on the manufacturer. Check the information that came with your computer or go to the manufacturer’s website.
c. On the BIOS setup screen, select the option called “Boot order,” or something similar.
d. Select your DVD or CD drive as the first startup device.
e. Restart your computer, and then start Windows from the installation DVD or CD as previously described.
2. To see if your computer can run Windows Vista, open Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor by clicking “Check compatibility online.” (This step is optional.)
3. On the Install Windows page, follow any instructions that appear, and then click Install now.
4. On the Get important updates for installation page, we recommend getting the latest updates to help ensure a successful installation and to help protect your computer against security threats. You will need an Internet connection to get these updates.
Note: This page will not appear if you start Windows from the installation disc.
5. On the Type your product key for activation page, we strongly suggest that you type your 25-character product key to help avoid problems during activation.
6. On the Please read the license terms page, if you accept the license terms, click I accept the license terms.
7. On the Which type of installation do you want? page, click Custom.
8. On the Where do you want to install Windows? page, do one of the following:
· If you don't want to install Windows on a specific partition or create partitions on your hard disk, click Next to begin the installation.
· If you want to install Windows on a specific partition and have an existing partition with enough free space, select the partition you want to use, and then click Next to begin the installation. (If you do this, be sure to install Windows on a different partition from the one where your current version of Windows is installed.)
· If you want to create, extend, delete, or format a partition, and you started Windows from the installation disc, click Drive options (advanced), click the option you want, and then follow the instructions.
· If you want to create, extend, delete, or format a partition, and you did not start Windows from the installation disc, follow the instructions in the second option of step 1 above, and then follow the instructions.
9. Continue to follow the instructions.
Important Be sure to enable existing, or install new, antivirus software after the installation is complete.
