This completes the final step of your clean install of Windows 7. Congratulations!
Important: If you chose not to enable automatic updates (Step 29) then the first step after installing Windows 7 is to visit Windows Update and install all the important service packs and patches that have been issued since the version of Windows 7 on your DVD was released.
In other words, any service packs and patches installed on your old operating system are obviously no longer installed.
If you did enable automatic updates, Windows 7 will prompt you about any important updates needed.
If this is your first installation of Windows 7, you can learn more about the operating system at the About.com Windows site right here on the About.com network.
