Using Windows® 8 for the first time

After completing the installation process, Windows® 8 directs you to a series of steps where you can customize your account settings and set user preferences for your Notebook PC.

The setup process consists of the following:

Step 1: Pick the language

Step 2: License Agreement

Step 3: Personalize

Step 4: Wireless

NOTE: This step allows you to connect to the internet during the setup process. If you do so, you can enable both of these sign in options for your Notebook PC: Using your Microsoft account and Using a local account. If you choose to Connect to a wireless network later, you will only be prompted to create a local account during the setup process.

Step 5: Settings

Step 6: Sign in to your Notebook PC

NOTE: Windows® 8 prompts you to sign in using your local account or Microsoft account depending on the settings you customized in Step 4.
