Can not install Win 7 on a new HD
My HD died today. It is on Win XP and Win 7.
I installed a new HD and tried to install windows using my Win 7 Upgrade disc.
I get the following error message
Setup could not create a new partition system or locate an existing partition of the syetem. See logs of installation for more information.
Have no idea on how to see the information of the newspaper because I'm under Win install.
I realize that I use a CD to upgrade to actually do a fresh install, but could that be the reason of the weird error message.
If anyone can give me a pointer on what to do then it would be GREATLY appreciated.
If you need drivers, they can be delivered on any media: floppy disk, USB key, CD/DVD, or else your BIOS can read.
Needed XP disk, later versions of Windows can accept any support.

I deleted the partition system, pure can not install Win 7 Pro because of the error message
So, I tried to install Windows 10 on a friends old PC (acer aspire 5920g). I bought a new SSD and traded with the HARD disk, performed a clean install of win 10 and realized that I should return to Win 7 after that too many things were not working well. So, I formatted the disk (230 GB) and system reserved partition. (I took the SSD and put it in an external enclosure that I have connected to my PC to 10 Win.)
I didn't know much about this system reserved partition but read that it didn't really need when you want to perform a clean installation of another OS. After the partition reserved for formatting system, he said 500 GB of unallocated space. I didn't quite understand that the reader is a 240 GB Sandisk SSD. I put the other (230GB) partition to active and primary with the management tool disc to win 10.
I put in the Win 7 DVD and change the setting of this kind it would be DVD first the bios startup. However, the Win 7 installation dialog does not appear at all. Instead BACK gives me this message: 'an operating system not found. Try disconnecting all drives that do not contain an operating system. Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart. »I tried different startup commands but did not get any result. What should I do next? How can I make a simple clean install of Windows 7 Pro (on the new SSD)?
There are no problems reported by those who follow these steps for a Clean install Windows 10 Upgrade
then you might want to try again and this time stick to these steps.
Otherwise clean reinstall Windows 7 you can turn on with the installation media checked in the player by pressing F12 to Acer to get a Boot Menu, choose the bootable media, custom Setup, to the selection screen of disc to remove all partitions until the unallocated space, and then click next to leave automatic formatting and start the installation. With the Installer do the partition creation and formatting avoid you unnecessary problems second guess the necessary system partitions and you can ignore all this.
All the other things you did remove the HDD to format in another PC were unnecessary because that's all that is needed. If other installation problems arise when it's properly you must follow these additional steps to fix failed Installation Windows 7 , that cover all possible problems.

Hello
Satellite P300D-20U belongs to the PSPDCE series and I think that it was equipped with the chip graphics ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 (M82XT).
Did you choose this series in the form of European driver of Toshiba?
I see the Display Driver for Win XP v 8.477.
If you can not install using the setup.exe, then you should try to install this driver in Device Manager.
Mark (possibly marked with yellow exclamation) graphics card then choose put up-to-date driver, use the Advanced installation procedure, point to the driver files downloaded from the Toshiba page and apply.It should work
