Error code 0x8007045D when doing fresh install
So I launched my PC the other day and was greeted with a BSOD. System repair didn't work so I decided now would be a good time to install the Samsumg 840 EVO SSD that has just been sitting in my room for a while.
So I unplugged the harddrive and then plugged in the SSD, but when installing I was greeted with error code 0x8007045D.
The error appears during the "Expanding files" part of the install at around 4%, and the dialogue advises to check for missing files.
Here's all of the things I've tried:
- Downloading an ISO from digital river
- Microsoft's own USB boot drive software AND command prompt
- Running Memtest - it came out clear
- Changing from ACHI to IDE mode
- Undoing all overclocking on the system
- Cleaning the SSD with the command prompt
- Resetting the BIOS settings to default
- Disabling secure boot
- Unplugging any unnecessary peripherals
Those are all the things I can think of.
Has anyone got any more ideas? It's really frustrating that I can't use my PC at all at the moment (especially with Thief about to come out - I've been excited for ages! :P)
