First, we need to briefly talk about the concept of ghost and install Windows already:

#first. What is Windows reinstallation?

Installing Windows means installing an operating system on your computer, using a file (* .ISO), or buying the original installation disc from Microsoft, and of course, without any modification.

You will have to perform a series of operations in an automatic interactive process so it will be very time consuming.

#2. What is computer ghost?

Bung Ghost is the process of continuously writing data to a straight sector without the support of the operating system, without any interaction, without reformatting the hard drive.

Ghost is a method of using a previous backup of your own computer or that of someone else sharing it. And usually in these ghost versions, there are all necessary tools and software for a common computer user such as driver, software …

# 3. Pros & cons of Ghost and install WIN

Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, and here I will analyze it according to my personal experience, if there are any shortcomings, I hope you enthusiastically contribute more to the full article. Please.

– Advantages of installing win

• When the computer is installed from the standard Win set provided by MS, it will be fully compatible with the computer, which means that your computer will run stably and operate at the highest performance.
• No personalization, because it is the original Win, of course, it has not been edited or personalized at all.
• Less conflict with hardware.

– The downside of installing win

– The advantage of ghost

• Fast and convenient. Save time and effort (20-30 minutes is complete, depending on the size of the ghost file).
• If you use the fullsoft versions and full drivers that are shared on the network, you will not need to install anything but can use it well.
• It’s possible to choose from multiple shared windows versions from the Pro that you probably won’t be able to do like them.

– The downside of ghost

• Or personalized: Usually, the ghost versions shared on the internet are edited to their liking.
• Or faulty. Not all ghosts are fully compatible with Windows, can run very well on other people’s computers, but on your computer, it runs very sluggishly and even cannot run.
• The creator of that ghost may have turned off, locked functions that you might need to use, and when you need to use it, it cannot be used and of course you don’t know how to fix it> must find another ghost version ?
• The computer is at risk of virus infection if you use ghosts of unknown origin, unknown members on forums.
• The computer cannot operate at 100% of its performance.

# 4. Who should install win?

• Windows installation is not for lazy people, but anyway, I still encourage you to take a little time to install Windows for the computer. Then create a ghost for your own use or you can follow this tutorial to create a multi-configurable ghost for multiple use machines.
• For machines that cannot ghost, or ghost fails, you must install win for the computer.

# 5. Who should ghost machine?

• People who are lazy or less knowledgeable about software or system settings. If you do not have the ability to fully optimize your computer, installing Windows not only takes time but also does not achieve performance by ghost. Because most of the multi-configuration ghost versions shared on the network are refined quite professionally and have integrated all the necessary softwares.
• Technicians, supermarket technicians, install win … then I believe 99% is ghost. Because no one is free to install win, it’s too time consuming ?

# 6. In short, like this

If it is your computer and you want to use it stably and in a long term, you should install Windows yourself and set it up as you like, your working needs.

Then create a ghost file from the Win version you just installed so that you can use it next time without reinstalling Windows. Thus it will be fully compatible with your computer and of course will be more stable than using the shared ghosts on the network a lot.

But as long as you have to have experience in computer optimization, it’s not good if you just install win and throw it away.

Tips: Note that after the installation is complete, install the driver, install the necessary software (with the link above) and tweak the system first.

Then you create a backup (ghost) too. You should not install too much software then create a ghost because it will take a lot of disk space to store and what’s worse is that the ghost will not be stable.
