When installing a new PC should you install expansion cards before of after you install the OS?
Usually after. Install the basic or minimum components first: motherboard, CPU, RAM, hard-drive and optical drive. If the motherboard does not have built-in graphics (most do these days) install a graphics card. Plug in the monitor, keyboard and mouse. Unplug all other USB/FireWire devices. Start the system and set the BIOS/CMOS settings accordingly. Then install the OS.
With the OS installed, install the motherboard drivers (chipset, RAID, audio, ethernet, etc). Then install the expansion cards one at a time. Test each new component before moving to the next. Finally, install printer drivers and any other removable hardware (USB/FireWire devices).
With the hardware sorted, you can begin installing software programs.
