Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
0.5 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '0.5'.
4 + -4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4x + -4 + x2 = 0 + -4

Reorder the terms:
4 + -4 + -4x + x2 = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + -4x + x2 = 0 + -4
-4x + x2 = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4
-4x + x2 = -4

The x term is -4x.  Take half its coefficient (-2).
Square it (4) and add it to both sides.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4x + 4 + x2 = -4 + 4
