如何创建自己的Windows 8安装DVD或USB
Upgrading to Windows 8 was rather different to previous versions of the operating system – this time it could be done entirely online. You may well have decided to keep upgrade costs as low as possible by not buying a backup DVD. Here’s how you can create your own.
升级到Windows 8与以前版本的操作系统有很大的不同–这次可以完全在线完成。 您可能已经决定不购买备用DVD来将升级成本保持在最低水平。 这是创建自己的方法。
To create your own DVD you’ll need to download the installation files. Start by visiting the Windows Order Summary page and fill in the form with all of the details requested of you.
要创建自己的DVD，您需要下载安装文件。 首先访问Windows订单摘要页面，然后在表单中填写您要求的所有详细信息。

除非您特别有条理，并且在初次购买后采取了打印订单确认电子邮件的步骤，否则您可能不会立即获得所有这些详细信息。
To track down the email, just search your inbox for ‘Thanks for ordering Windows 8’ and you’ll find the relevant message easily.
要跟踪电子邮件，只需在收件箱中搜索“感谢订购Windows 8”，您将轻松找到相关的消息。
