Instructions for Installing Windows using WinNTSetup, Active Win

1. Install Windows using WinNTSetup?

WinNT Setup supports installing many Windows versions including XP\7\8\10\11. You can install Windows according to UEFI or Legacy standards in any boot standard. Whether you are using 32-bit or 64-bit WinPE, it can be done.
For Windows Rebuild versions that cannot be installed using Setup.exe, WinNT Setup will solve this problem

* The hard drive standard for Windows boot UEFI mode is GPT:

GPT (GUID Partition Table) is a new standard that can replace MBR with more optimized interfaces and better features. The GPT standard is also compatible with UEFI to replace BIOS. The advantage of the GPT standard is that it supports a maximum capacity of 256TB and the number of partitions on the hard drive is up to 128.

*** Newer computers all default to GPT so you don’t need to worry about this ***
