"windows could not configure one or more system components"
I am performing a clean install of windows 7 on my sony VGN-FW520F (which had Windows 7 previously).
I performed a secure erase of the HD with "Clean All" command in DISKPART and reformatted the drive in ntfs (As suggested in another thread with similar problems)
When I install Windows 7 64 bit I get an error 85% through that says "windows could not configure one or more system components" and requires a new installation.
Did I wipe critical drivers from SONY that are needed to perform an install?
If so what steps do I need to take to install Windows 7? I have spent 10+ hours trying to research and cant find anyone with this problem that is not fixed by completely wiping the hard drive.
Thanks....
