Disk partition has no volume (Annoying)

sagefilms · 21 Oct 2014

iv tried so much already and i haven't found the solution but im getting more information.

my asus g60vx had windows 7 pre installed and i installed windows 8 it had crashes and now it doesnt want to boot so i tried to install windows 7 again but the disk wouldnt show and i tried to re install windows 8 and it shows up but now i go to try and format it in diskpart but it says it has no volume i already completely wiped the hdd since its 298/298 when i "list disk". here are the details on the disk

detail disk

How did you completely wipe the disk?

i think when i tried to install windows 8 and selected the disk partition that was available, i formatted the drive. it gave me an error but i guess it still formatted. idk honestly but i dont care about the stuff i had, i just want to be able to use my laptop.

Code:

diskpart
select disk 0
detail disk (are you 100% sure this is the correct internal disk??!!)
clean
create partition primary size=500 (this will create a 500MB primary partition. Remove the size=500 part to use the whole drive)
exit

Which part of command above fail?

x:\Sources>diskpart

DISKPART> list disk

Disk # Status Size Free
Disk 0 Online 298GB 298GB

DISKPART> select disk 0

Disk 0 is now the selected disk.

DISKPART> clean

Diskpart succeeded in cleaning the disk.

DISKPART> format fs=ntfs

There is no volume selected.
Please select a volume and try again

DISKPART> list volume

You didn't create a partition after "clean"! (create partition primary)

So now do:

Code:

diskpart
select disk 0
create partition primary
format fs=ntfs quick

Disk has already been "cleaned". It looks like you want to use 1 partition which will use all the space on the physical drive.
