"Setup was unable to create a new system partition...."
I've been trying to install Windows 7 from a USB drive on a new HP laptop and I've ran into some problems.
There are 3 partitions listed. One is called HPDOCS, 7gb and is listed as primary. The second is also at 7gb and is listed as system, and the third was unallocated space with 920~ gb.
After some research, I've decided to try out the whole cmd "diskpart" thing. Furthermore, I've tried making my drive bootable by copying the installation files on it and installing directly from the drive, but after trying the " xcopy d: c: /e /h /k " command, I receive the message that there are no files to copy.
And lastly, after restarting and trying again, now I only have 1 partition, 930~ gb, and listed as system. Did I mess something up? Was something essential deleted? Can it be reverted?
Help is much appreciated.
