I know this is a boring video topic, but trust me, I really needed an updated Windows 10/11 installation tutorial video for all of my new 2023 PC build videos going forward!
Thank you for doing this, I just recently built mine but its a hassle when you don't know which websites you can truly trusted on but seeing how someone actually do it without not cuts. makes my anxiety slightly better when it comes with sketchy sites
@@Enkir011 did you buy it from the website in the link? was it real?
@@expoxd It does not work, tried it, product key didn't work
Thank you man everybody’s js glosses over it and I couldn’t figure out how to do it
I get that. Ive built like 5 pcs and always need a youtube video.
Next time you do this you should include stuff like bios drivers and gpu drivers. Will definitely help out beginners. Something like “What to do after building your pc”.
This is crazy! I used to be one of your subs back when I was getting into PC gaming. Yes, I unsubbed at some point, but it's because my interests were going elsewhere. You just popped up in my feed and see that your're still making content. Last I remember, you were kinda taking a break from YT, or at least PC stuff, to focus on body building. And that was the last I remember seeing of you. Glad to see you're still making content AND that you've grown the channel to this amount of subs!
Also, diggin the beard!
Awesome!! I've been wanting to build a new comp. This was the last piece I needed. Subscribed!!!
Really needed this information for my new build🎉 Thanks! Keep the content coming!
Thank you very much, you presented it in a very simple way making it much easier to understand.
Just helped me in November 2023 thank you scatter 🙋🏽❤️
You look like Captain America from Civil War hahah and thank you for the tutorial! I purchased one of those keys with your code from another video!
Your guidance was so good and step by step. Even a 90-year-old could do it if sees this video
Thank you!
Nice! Thanks! More Arc content would also be nice!
Just wait!
you should make a video on how to uprrade your setup with the best new parts for the price
Thanks for this clip I really needed this clip ☺️
Do I need to plug the USB before I turn on the PC for the first time or After ?
Do we need a windows 11 key or windows 11 pro ?
When I was naming my pc, the signal stopped working and now when i turn on my pc, the display is on and shows the pc booting up, but as soon as it tries to do anything past that, the display stops working and nothing shows up
should i buuy a windows 11 usb or smth else?
very easy and straightforward! However, is there any difference in the process if I wanna use my storage devices from my old PC? I have two SSDs, and one of them has a windows installation on it, and since my new pc is gonna have new cpu and MOBO imma need to get a new windows installation.
I think you can drag and drop your old SSD into your new pc as long as it has windows still on it
@@ScatterVolt hey there! i tried that and it took me for quite the ride. Did not boot to windows at all. enabling csm made it appear as a boot drive but still didnt boot to windows, which was odd. There were no uefi toggles in my asrock mobo bios. Ended up going thru the process of converting my ssd from mbr to gpt, which also involved trying to fix the recovery partition which mbr2gpt needed to validate (i could have just used bcdedit to bypass but the fact i had no recovery partition was concerning). After all that stuff and backing up data, my ssd finally was in gpt format and then booted up in my new hardware just fine without needing a fresh install!
this man is always a w
What size you recommend for the flash drive? and what brand?
Size and brand don't matter
i tried to download windows 11 pro onto a brand new flash drive, cleared it just like you did, and for some reason had an error saying there wasnt enough space despite being a 16GB drive with 14.3GB space available. any chance you have a solution for that?
Weird. I don’t know. Try a different USB?
Love your vids but it would be really useful if you made a video showing how you get lan on no WiFi motherboards and all the drivers cause I'm really confused right now 😃
Lan doesn't need drivers. Just plug the ethernet cable from your PC to your router. It should hook up to your internet as longa s you enter the right password.
@@ScatterVolt thanks some other UA-camrs confused me
@@familyguyeditz Who? If I may ask.
@@ScatterVolt at the end he says he needs to order WiFi and install drivers as he plugged in the Lan and it isn't working
will this delete everything that is on the pc that your installing windows 11 ??
I dont know why but it doesnt allow me to select my Usb stick when allocating, it just defaults to my pc and says that i need to free up disk space on my system, anyone have a fix for this?
I downloaded windows on my flash pluged it to my pc and now im just staring at a blank screen, 5min have passed nothing
After windows is installed can you take the flash drive out or does it have to be in all the time?
You can remove it just like any other flash drive.
What if you dont have another device to erase it with
I tried to do this with windows 11 but it said "This PC can't run Windows 11". I'm not exactly sure what to do now. I read something saying that maybe TMP 2.0 wasn't enabled, so I was thinking that I would have to install Windows 10, enable it, and then switch to Windows 11. Does that sound right or am I completely off?
Have you figured it out?
Get into your bios and turn on securer boot and tpm 2.0 or just youtube. smh
@@eeeeeeeeeeee7670 I already got it but thx
Is that website reliable for windows keys ?
What if I have already booted into BIOS?
You went a little too fast. Can you type your discount code, please?
I only have a cromebook, nothing that runs windows. it says I can't open the fill to install it because I don't have it on windows. is there a way around it?
Google it. I've never run into your issue before because I've never owned a chromebook.
Yes you can use a Chromebook, but its a different process. You will need the Chromebook Recovery Utility in addition to the Windows 10/11 ISO file. Plug in the flash drive into your Chromebook. Change the extension of the ISO file to BIN. Then open Chrome and then the Recovery Utility. Click on the gear icon and select "Use local image". Select the W10/11 BIN file. Then select the flash drive you want to restore to and let the tool run. It may take more than 30 minutes to complete. Once it is finished, removed the flash drive from your Chromebook and plug it into your new PC and install Windows as shown in the video.
I don’t know if anybody has the problem I’m having, but when I turn the computer on there is no display. I checked the monitor and the hdmi cable. This is my first pic build so I don’t know what I’m looking for. If anyone has ideas on what is happening it’s greatly appreciated
1. Have you tried a display port cable
2. Is there power to your monitor
3. Is your display cable plugged into your graphics card (and not your motherboard)
Did you ever figure out what happened cause I’m having the exact same problem and don’t know what to do 🥲🥲
make a video core i5 13400 or core i5 13500 fast ..... waiting me and many users...
My un allocated space doesn’t show up as an option on first boot. Any ideas
You need to partition your drive through the disk management app.
How could I do that? Im not able to get to the desktop screen and access the pc yet due to windows not being fully set up
I don't really get why these keys are cheaper from third party sellers rather than windows and if it might cause an issue later on down the line? anyone got any answers for this?
I'm thinking the same thing. I know the website is safe and since Scattervolt is using it I think we should be just fine.
I've bought probably 30+ keys from vipscdkey and only one of them didn't work.
@@ScatterVolt Great!
@@ScatterVolt alright thank you I went with a similar 4070 build on one of your videos. Your videos are great.
These are gray market key sites. So while the product keys they sell are usually legitimate, how they were obtained may not be particularly legit. Some of these keys are VLK's (Volume License Keys). They're intended to be used by a company or organization only. They may also be MAK or Multiple Activation Keys. Again, they're only intended to be used inside of that company. They may have been leaked or stolen and sold elsewhere. There are also OEM license which are intended for OEMs or companies who make pre-built PCs and then sell them like HP, Dell and so forth. OEM keys are significantly cheaper than retail keys because they're meant for OEMs to bundle with that computer. They come with the condition that the key only stays with that computer/motherboard.
My computer keeps saying no signal pls help
Do i need to buy a key code to activate windows?
No
i keep getting an error
Didn’t work for me. I have a flash drive that has Windows installed but nothing came up as an option for me to select. So I’m guessing I need a second hard drive sadly
If your SSD/HDD that you want to install windows on isn’t showing up for you, then that either means it’s plugged in incorrectly, missing a power or sata connection, or is defective.

My usb is on fat32 but windows 11 exceeds the 4gb limit, what should I do? I also tried ntfs but it didn’t boot
What size SSD did I say was the minimum you needed in the video? 😅
I think I recognize my mistake now, I didn’t use the media installation I just downloaded the two things onto a flash drive. I appreciate you replying, thank you😊
my friend told me i need a certain windows flash drive? idk if he is right or not because i just have a random 8gb flash drive laying around and i can just delete everything off it and then plug it to the pc right?
yeah any flash drive should work
He probably mean that you need a flash drive that has the Windows install files. Any flash drive with at least 8 GB of capacity will do. The media creation tool will put the install files from Microsoft on there. Just note that everything will be erased from the flash drive.
I’ve heard from a friend that these cdkey websites are kinda sketchy and that these keys tend to only last about a year or two then they don’t work anymore and become obsolete is that true?… do I have to buy a new product key every time I decide to upgrade or build a new pc?… or is it reusable?… I’m so confused 🤔…. Or should I just buy one from Microsoft?… please help
For low prices at $15, it’s minimal risk. My personal key has yet to “expire” despite being four years old.
@@ScatterVolt oh okay thank you for that… this helps a lot.
the only other computer i have is an imac, is that fine?
Yes, but its a different process. The Media Creation Tool doesn't run on non-Windows systems.
You'll need: Your iMac, Google Chrome, Chromebook Recovery Utility, flash drive, and W10/11 ISO. Once you have everything, plug in the flash drive. Change the extension of the ISO to BIN. Open Chrome and then the Chromebook Recovery Utility.
Click on the gear icon on the top right of the utility and choose "Use local image". Select the BIN file you renamed earlier and then select the flash drive you want to restore to. Click "Continue" and let the tool run. It may take upwards of 30 minutes so be patient. Once the tool is finished you can remove the flash drive from your Mac and then plug it into your new PC to install Windows onto. Follow the install process as normal.
@@JJFlores197 thank you
Can i download it on my MacOS and have no issues? Or do i need a windows computer to download it?
I’d like to think there would be community and worldwide outrage if Apple didn’t let users download windows media creation tools on their Macs lmao
@@ScatterVolt wait so i can?
@@ScatterVolt Like can i use a MacOS to install windows 11 media to my flashdrive
Try it
It does not work
Most omnipotent Microsoft won't let you create a USB if your C: drive doesn't have 8GB free space on it.. I wouldn't let me change drive, only said to close the installer and free up space. Once I did that the save to USB option came up... sheesh..
On the "Where do you want to install Windows?" It shows 2 partitions and neither of them work :/
So that’s something with the PC you’re installing windows on. Are you reinstalling windows on an existing pc? If so, that’s why those two separate partitions are showing up. Otherwise you’ll just need to delete them and then you can install windows fresh on a clean drive.
Mine says 8gb of free disk space needed. Even with the usb plugged in.
Your USB flash drive needs to be 8gb or bigger in size
@@ScatterVolt I got a 36gb USB three so I'm not really sure what's going on.
Hey did you fix it?
Same issue here and I have a 32gb flash
@@kareemhosea6160 I used my friends computer to install windows on and then just plugged it in like the video instructed.
why is this so much cheaper than buying the disc from amazon? those are like 3 times as much for the same thing?
A lot of these tech channels promote gray market key reseller websites. Their product keys and codes are very cheap because they're gray market. They're typically purchased in other countries where the cost is lower than in the US
how do you do this when you dont have another computer?
If you can't get access to any other working PC with internet, you will need to buy a Windows USB installer.
@@JJFlores197 so that's what the video showed right? The USB with windows in it?
@@vrowed7422 Well the video is on how to make a USB installer through a working PC. But yes, if you buy a pre-made USB installer, it is the same overall purpose as if you make it yourself. The main difference is that when you buy a premade USB flash drive, you're paying for the product key. That's why its expensive.
Can I use this method to upgrade my current computer from, say, Windows 7? Stop laughing, lol.
their is cheaper websites with these keys even with the discount
Why do i keep seeing people say that windows is free? And then not needing to buy one.
It’s free to download and use afterwards
But you won’t technically “own” it unless you buy a key
I'm confused. I downloaded it. It automatically saved to my download folder so I copied that to my stick. Then what? I just put my stick on the new computer and it will boot to that stick? Looks like your video is missing many steps.
Did you even run the program? Lol
Please watch the entirety of this video.
Looks like you skipped many steps in watching this video.....
What if u only have a MacBook and not a computer like yours
Yes, but its a different process. The Media Creation Tool doesn't run on non-Windows systems.
You'll need: Your Mac Book, Google Chrome, Chromebook Recovery Utility, flash drive, and W10/11 ISO. Once you have everything, plug in the flash drive. Change the extension of the ISO to BIN. Open Chrome and then the Chromebook Recovery Utility.
Click on the gear icon on the top right of the utility and choose "Use local image". Select the BIN file you renamed earlier and then select the flash drive you want to restore to. Click "Continue" and let the tool run. It may take upwards of 30 minutes so be patient. Once the tool is finished you can remove the flash drive from your Mac and then plug it into your new PC to install Windows onto. Follow the install process as normal.
Be great if the damn link worked.
Well this did not work. It said I need more hard drive space. It did not give me a option to creat a USB drive.
Is your USB flash drive at least 8gb?
@ScatterVolt my C. drive was almost full, so I made room, and it worked.
You sure those cheap keys are not illegal and Microsoft approved and not a grey market and not pirated?
4:51 4:51 🎉 4:51
You missed a whole bunch of important steps relating to bios but anyway
Boot order should automatically recognize the windows bootable media device in any brand new pc you build, so you shouldn’t have to enter the bios. That’s only a worry if you plan to wipe or erase your current SSD and reinstall windows.
When you say installing windows aren't you at that point just downloading the installation files on to the flash drive?? That is what I have done, so far. You skip then entire startup sequence and jump ahead to install windows. I hope you didn't leave anything out like how to actually get the PC to boot into the bootable USB. Why? I don't like these gaps. I'm having a senior moment because to the gaps! Yikes!!!!
I can’t connect my wife card with my internet, why?
..so I need whole other computer just to install windows? That makes no sense… this is literally my first computer ever and now I gotta buy another one just for windows? Wow
Go to a library.
Used your last video for my first build. And today I’m building a second one and needed an updated guide! The timing of this is 😘🤌🏼 thank you so much
will this delete everything that is on the pc that your installing windows 11 ??
