Hello. I'm Selma Teacher7 also known as Mr.. Berry by my students today. I want to show you how to install
Chrome os, which is just like the chrome os on to an older windows laptop now
let's say that you have an older windows laptop hanging around and it's so slow you don't want to use it [anymore] and
This one here is very slow. It's running windows 7 has [2] gigs of ram, and it is a dell latitude
D630
Now once we install the chrome os, or the chromium os?
It should make this machine much faster it still works with a Microsoft word document
So that you can still [open] them even offline you can
Store your files locally or save the menu to your Google drive or even into your Microsoft onedrive
When you're online use that one?
so let's go ahead and [get] started with showing you step by step on how to download the
Operating system, and then actually install it on this machine, and I have to install it
I'm going to run some tests to see how it actually performs in
Benchmarking alrighty. [let's] [get] started with the lesson [now] to find the chrome os from neverwhere. Just type in
neverwhere
calm
Once you're at the site. Just scroll down click
On install Cloud ready home
I'll be using the 64-bit Cloud ready
so I choose that
And then [they] download the operating system
It may take a few minutes - 30 min or so sitting on a fast you're interesting to download
Now want to finish [it] downloading
You need to install the chrome recovery utility app which I'll show you how to find right [now] at the chrome web store [just]
click on launcher
And find your [webstore] click it
and then type in recovery
in the box
Hit enter
and then go down the list to the apps and
this is the one that you want to install it's called Chromebook recovery utility you just click on add to chrome and then
You'll have it
Once it's downloaded go over here click [on] the start apps
and you can type in recovery to find the
recovery [os] offered by chrome
And here it says create a recovery media for your chromebook
and what we're going to do here is click [on] the tools and
Then right here. It says use local image. We just downloaded the chrome os image
There we go
And then click on the drive you want to use and then continue and create now
Now this step involves it creating a recovery image right onto your uSb thumb drive
[it] does take some time to complete
You can use in an 8 or 16 gig size thumb drive
Now once it's created the recovery media is a success your recovery media is ready
You can remove your recovery Media
Okay now take out the uSb drive and boot up from that on the laptop
I have to do the
630 Latitude plugged into power
[more] I turn it on and then go into the bios [setup] by pressing the F2 key
You know this is the bios setup
In order to install the chrome os from neverwhere I?
Have to do it up from a uSb flash drive
So what we want to do is to boot up from a flash drive
Within the bios settings, I'm going to scroll down by using the down arrow Key down
To where we have the boot sequence
And I hit the enter key once and there it is Usb storage device
Now it says press up or down arrow keys to select U and d to move it some are go you
To move that one up
To the very top that [way] it will
boot up from the USB storage device
Once I'm done
Press Escape, [it] says. Do you [want] to save?
Yes save
like and
Now click on save and exit, but before I do I want to plug in the USB device
So now I've plugged it in and we want to click on or hit save and exit
Okay, and here. We're booting up from the USB devices Cloud ready
And we're starting one takes
Okay, already. It looks very similar to Chrome os here
[and] here's the Network
Choose my network and then put in my password
After putting in the password for your wi-Fi network. I'm going to click on Connect
And then I say continue
And this does look called whole bunch like Chrome os
Okay, now I'm going to enter in my gmail account and click next
hang in your password click on next
And here it says thanks for using Cloud Ready home edition
Okay now
What we wanna do to install this [onto] the hard drive
Click down here on your iPod or chrome icon and right here. [it] [says] install click on install now
It says install plow already
So what is cloud radio? S it's a full operating system built and maintained by
neverwhere
Based on Google's open source Chromium os
It says the installation is in progress. [don't] turn off the machine. So [you] take no longer than 20 minutes
The machine will automatically shut down after it's solid
This is [a] great option to revive older laptops which I'm sure many of us have laying around the house
There are two versions
There's the free [home] version and the [enterprise] version which has a small charge to it and that would be used for schools
Now the operating system can be stalled in one of two ways
one as a standalone where it's the only operating system on the machine or
[as] a dual boot system
We have both windows or the cloud [radio] [s] to choose from on each time you boot up the machine
Now here in the video what I've done is
I remove the uSb thumb drive, and I press the power button to [turn] on the machine. So here. We're watching it turn on and
The look of it looks just like you would expect from a chromebook
This is the chrome os is now on the hard drive. So I'm going to choose the network
And you [put] [in] your network password
and press continue
And type in your email address for gmail press next then your password
then click next
There you go
And there's notes there, but if I go [down] here, then I click on start
So I just clicked on this button start, and there's the applications. I was using my other Chromebook earlier today
With all apps and those apps are now installing from my Google account so [like] my Microsoft office Microsoft word excel
All that would be coming down as well as my google drive. Google docs Google sheets as you see here. They're installing right now
And it does feel very fast compared to what them shooting was before
[well], it works
Now have a really fast machine with all the applications
[they] go apps again
There's like my offline solitaire. I have microsoft Powerpoint
there's Microsoft word and
other applications here
so if I go into apps here and go to drive
There's all of my books my files my pictures everything my music everything is stored here
They are I haven't lost anything
Even my Microsoft word documents are here
In one command that you can use if you go to new Tab you go to chrome
colon slash slash and then system
system like this hit enter
and this loans the about system app where you can [actually] see all the
Detailed information about the hardware and software that's running in this computer
Another way as we're doing this. It's still installing more of my apps which is my video editing apps and other apps down here
If I go down the list, we'll just go control app so I can find something I can type in the word storage
you
Here it is their storage info just click on expand in this particular dale
As a 60 gig hard drive [I] go with memory
Go over here [two] men info click on Expand and this computer has two gigs of Ram
and here are saying using Google release version [56] point three point eighty to
develop a bill never wear
less [release] still type
Hey there, you have it. You now know how to download the operating system from the
neverwhere Website onto a jump drive and
install it on a
Older Laptop now what I did with it last night was I ran some benchmarking [tests]
And I also took other chromebooks, and I ran the exact [tank] test. Did the exact same things I then put into a chart
Let's look at the chart and look at all the machines now. I
Use Peacekeeper to Benchmark each of the [machines]
started with the acer [GB] five five seven [one] this is the one that actually used to do all my
Video editing, it's a very fast
Chromebook, and it gets a very high score
and when we look at the Dell latitude the D630
Notice that score is about [two-thirds] that of the faster a search [TV] five five seven one I
did play videos and was able to do all the other work on the
D630 but it is slower then the newer chromebooks, but still acceptable when I go in to my Google
account and look at all the devices it sees the
[dell] 630 [a] [day] chrome os there at the top
