How to install Operating system in Raspberry Pi (Raspberry Pi Device setup process while using first time)

Before following these process, You need to follow below process.

-> We recommend using an SD card with at least minimum capacity of 8GB.

-> We need NOOBS software to install Operating system in raspberry Pi. Basically NOOBS is a Operating system installer.

-> You can directly download NOOBS. Click Here

-> Extract the files from zip.

Step 1: Format Your SD Card

1. First we need to format your SD card Before copying NOOBS files.

2. Download [SD Formatter 4.0](https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/) for either Windows or Mac.

3. Insert your SD card into computer/laptop's SD card reader and make a note of the drive letter allocated to it, e.g. G:/

4. In SD Formatter, select the drive letter for your SD card and format it.

Step 2: Drag & Drop NOOBS Files

1. After format SD card, drag all the files in the extracted NOOBS folder and drop them onto the SD card drive.

2. When this process has finished, safely remove the SD card and insert it into your Raspberry Pi.

Step 3: First Boot

1. Plug in your keyboard, mouse and monitor cables with raspberry Pi device.

2. Plug the USB power cable into your raspberry Pi device.

3. Now after plug in USB cable, your raspberry Pi will boot and a window will appear with a list of different OS (Operating System) that you can install. We recommend that you use Raspbian - tick the box next to Raspbian and click on install.

4. When the install process has completed then Raspberry Pi configuration menu (raspi-config) will load. Where you can set the time and date for your region, enable a Raspberry Pi camera board, or even create users. 

5. After done your configuration you exit this menu by using "Tab" on your keyboard to move to "Finish".

Step 4: Loggin & Accessing the graphical user interface

Default login credentials for Raspbian.

username: pi

password: raspberry

After login you can access graphical user interface type: "startx" and press **Enter**
