During prerequisites installation, your system may reboot multiple times. Once prerequisites installation is completed, you may click on “Install SharePoint Server”.
After Installation, you need to configure SharePoint 2013 on your system. To do this follow below steps/screenshots.
In next screen select NTLM (Which is default), if you wish to change the port for Central Administration you may change or leave it as default and proceed. It will continue the process.
Once you will complete this, Central Admin (Initial Farm Configuration) URL will be opened.
You may proceed by using the wizard (click on start the wizard) or by manual by clicking the Cancel button.
Select existing account or create a new service account.
Then select services that you want and click on Next.
It will continue, wait for a while and you are now ready to work with SharePoint on your system.
