Trying to do a clean install of OS on new SSD, but having problems
HI, I'm trying to do a clean install of windows 7 Pro x64 on a new SSD I bought but I'm having a persistent problem no matter what I try or what steps I use to try and fix the problem. I'm using a disk copy for the install (if it matters) and I get to the screen where it asks where I want to install the OS, I pick my SSD, then I click ADVANCED, then NEW, I select the partition size and format. But I get the same error message every time which is "Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate and existing system partition. See the Setup log files for more information".
If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it, I've been stuck on this problem for about a week now and it's drastically increasing my stress levels.
