Can’t Install windows please help .-.

[sebassebas22]

Just built my first pc ever and i cant seem install windows and im loosing hope already. Once i try to click on my disk it says “we couldn’t create a new partion or locate an existing one” so i did some research and tried troubleshooting and click shift +f10 to only mess it up even more and have another problem with not finding my “disk list “ this error says “disk or anything i put…” is not recognized as an internal or external command , operable program or batch “ i been working on this for hours and i’m about to give up so any help will be appreciated.

Im not an expert but try update your drivers then try again

Delete all the partitions on disk 0 (this will lose all the data)

 

Then pick the UNPARTITIONED space and simply press next.

 

Let us know what happens.

Try click on all the disks you see in the Windows installer window, and choose Delete on all of them. 

Then you end up with 1 disk - on this, click new and follow the intructions - try to install on this one.

Download another iso, ive downloaded a few w7 ultimate isos and most of them didnt work but one did work, so im pretty sure that it might be a crappy iso or you didnt make the bootable usb correctly

Delete all the partitons and try again, If that doesn`t work try;-

 

 

Press Shift+F10

On The CMD Window Type "Diskpart" minus the quotes

Type:- List Disk

Select Disk X (X being the number of your drive)

Type:-  Clean

Type:- Exit

 

 

 

Then reboot the computer and the installation should succed

Will you try the solution that three people mentioned already? You ignored them, but replied to the one and only post that doesn't have anything to do with your problem.

You literally got the answer already multiple times. Have you tried their solution that is the actual solution here?

You need to first type DISKPART and then type LIST DISK.

READ ANY REPLY FULLY BEFORE TRYING OR RESPONDING.

tried it . Got an error from windows setup saying “windows could not Prepare the computer to boot into the next phase of installation to install windows restart the installation”

[Somerandomtechyboi]

Try installing windows 8.1, yes i hate w10 but this isnt an excuse for me to tell op to switch to w8.1 xD

 

This will rule out if w10 or the iso is causing the issue

what file system did you format your drive it while creating the installation media . If I`m not mistaken you need to format it as exfat file sytem if you want to use it for UEFI.

What SSD you have NVME Or SATA? If you can`t get Windows installed then temprorairly install Linux on it and then install WoeUSB for making proper install media.
