    Reinstall windows 7 starter N150 plus currently running linux


    Hello,

    I have a Samsung N150 plus which is currently running linux (xUbuntu) and I would like to revert it back to windows 7 starter edition, which is its original OS.
    I have tried installing the windows 7 starter iso (Windows 7 Starter Full Version Free Download ISO - Softlay) and installing it to a usb with the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download tool, however when it starts to process it says:

    Status: We are unable to copy your files. Please check your USB device and the selected ISO file and try again.

    Any help would be much appreciated,

    Peter

    Welcome to the forum. At what point do you get the message it won't be able to copy files unless you delete all Linux partition
