"English" <> "German" translations

I'd call steps 1-3 "Software Installation and Setup"

1) Initial setup. The setup program will create directories, extract and install the necessary files to your harddrive, and also perform some initial configuration of the installed software.

2) User configuration. Once the application is installed you will want to customize program features and setting for the user.

3) Check installation. Once user configuration is completed you will want to open the application and check the settings to be sure the application is working the way you wish it to.

I'd call steps 4-7 "Hardware Setup and Configuration.


(Am I confusing you even more?  )

Curt, Tux, thanks, but that is not what we're talking about here.

Thanks 40hz, that are well suited headings for my documentations.

"Hardware Setup and Configuration" is what we would call "Inbetriebnahme" and for what I had searched for an short, handy term like "Commissioning" 


Thank you all for your support, very appreciated
