XP 32 to 7 x64
I have been trying to install a win 7 x64 professinal on my XP-32 machine using the procedure suggested by MS, including using Adviser and Easy Transfer.
I cannot get past the initial few screens when loading up with Win 7 x64 disk.
I am getting the error 0x80300001 indicating that win 7 cannot install on the 2 HDD I have. One is SATA and the other IDE through High-Point RocketRaid 464. I thought the Raid card was the issue and disconnected the IDE HDD, but left the Raid card in place.
Have read a lot posts on possible issue with win 7 and SATA HDD or Raid setups.
Any help on what I need to do to get beyond this error message will be greatly appreciated. I do not mind reformating the HDDs as long as I can get this darn thing installed.
