[title] Install an operating system
-[* black] After reassembling the system and confirming the new drive is recognized, install the operating system of your choice.
-[* icon_caution] If you are installing Windows, it is recommended you purchase install media that does not come with a key, unless you can find an image online from a legitimate source, and verify it's integrity before use. Digital River has pulled the installation image from their servers, so this is a lot harder then it used to be in the past.
-[* icon_reminder] While the operating system installation is clean and intact, you may want to image it in this state, should you ever replace the drive again or have OS problems. To do this, install the latest drivers, fully update the OS and then image the system. It is recommended you do not change settings or install programs before imaging as well.
+[* icon_caution] ***If you are installing Windows, purchase OEM installation media that does not include an installation key unless the ISO is from Microsoft. 3rd party images should not be trusted nor used.***
+[* icon_note] ***In order to save time and avoid setting the system up from scratch every time, the system should be imaged once fully configured and updated. This image can be used to quickly recover the system if the drive is replaced or the system crashes.***
+[* black] After reassembling the system and confirming the new drive is recognized, install your preferred operating system.
