If you are using flash stick installer, I would enable F12 Boot Menu in BIOS, then set the HDD first to boot, trigger the flash stick to boot by tapping the F12 key at startup. This may avoid the flash stick reloading during the required reboots during install. But if it happens, just unplug the stick so it can take up with the install where it left off - stick isn't needed anyway since files are already copied off it.
The installation run normally from the usb,but when I get to "where do you want to install windows" it gave me this error... What should I type in the CMD to get the installation proceed normally?
Hey,Guys! I did it finally! Thank you all for your patience,I am complete newbie and never installed Windows so far... I am very glad that I managed to learn some things and now I'm confident that I can make it! Thank you all one more time and have a great day! :)
Glad to hear it. Good work!
Be sure to stick as closely as you can to the tools and methods compiled in Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 which will assure you'll get and keep a perfect install for as long as you do.
I have one more question...My HDD is 320GB and during the installation I separated disks C: and D: respectively to 69.9 Gb for C: and 228 for D:. But today I saw this:
I have obviously exchanged them! So if this is a big problem and what should I do? P.S. Windows 7 is installed in disk C:....
Drive letters like C and D can differ! in winpe (boot from dvd). C can be called D and vice versa. If you have another win vista, win7 or winxp installed.... drive letters can be different.
In common: if you start winxp, win vista, win7, win8 .... the windows partition is called C. In your case win7 has been installed on the 228GB partition. What's the problem?
If these are on the same HD then confirm there are no files on D, in Disk Mgmt delete D. Then shrink C by as much as you want, create a new D in the Unallocated Space.
