Cannot install Windows on disk 0 partition 1

Hi, I replaced my hard drive on my laptop, the new hard drive is empty and I want to install windows 7 on it, but I get the error windows cannot install on disk 0 partition 1, I can't format, install windows on it or anything.

If the two different versions of window will not complete a format, your hard drive is "defective".

You should check that:

(1) the hard drive can be used for a Windows startup disk.  Generally hard less than 2 TB can be used properly.

(2) find the hard drive diagnostic tests, the hard training web site of the manufacturer and follow the signs to test your hard drive.

3) search your computer / web site of the manufacturer of the motherboard for a BIOS update.  There could be a 'solution' that could fix your current problem.

You can buy a new drive hard so as to "bypass" the 'steps' to solve the problems of hard drive.

    A recovery disk, you must contact the manufacturer for assistance and/or replacement (or tell you how to make your own from the partition of recovery if you have a).  We cannot help you because these discs are manufactured by the manufacturer - not Microsoft.  Each manufacturer does differently and just, we do not have this information.

    Here is Microsoft's policy on replacement software: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326246.

    I hope this helps and I'm sorry, that we cannot do more to help.

    Hi Nnrmalata,

    1. you are trying to install 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7?

    2. What is the brand and model of your computer?

    Boot from GPT is only supported for 64-bit of Windows 7 on UEFI-based systems.

    For more details, refer to this link:

    http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/hardware/gg463525.aspx

    If your computer does not support UEFI, back up your important data to an external drive and delete all partitions on hard drives and create a new partition.

    (a) start from the Windows 7 DVD

    (b) click on install now

    (c) in the configuration screen, click Custom (Advanced)

    (d) click on drive Options

    (e) select the partitions to format

    (f) click on Format - this will erase EVERYTHING on this partition

    (g) create a new partition, and then select a partition to install Windows on.

    (h) follow the on-screen instructions and install Windows.

    Note: Converting a hard disk partition or volume from NTFS to FAT32 requires that you reformat the partition, which deletes all the data on this subject. Be sure to back up data that you want to keep before you begin.

    You can check the link for reference:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd799232 (WS.10) .aspx

    Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    If above did not help, please refer to the steps in this link.

    Note: Backup your important data to an external drive

  • Cannot install windows via bootcamp (Imac Mid 2011)

    Hi, I struggled for the last 2 days and can't seem to find how to create a windows partition and installed it.

    Note: I have a 27 inch mid 2011 Imac and run MacOS Sierra 10.12.

    I have problems with bootcamp especially at the stage of the process USB drive.

    1. I do not understand why Bootcamp assistant 2 display only tasks being #1 download the windows software and #2 install windows 10 when all apple support pages show 3 different tasks available as here https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT205016http ://

    2. I prefer to install windows 7 on my partition, bootcamp, however 'install windows 10', which means that I can't install an older version on my partition? I tried to install windows 7 via a win7 .iso file AND a win10 .iso but none of them works.

    3. whenever I try to install windows, the system do not recognize my USB (it would be with .iso win10 associated drivers or Win7 .iso. + drivers associated) and constantly asking for a disc to be inserted.

    My USB has been formatted through disk as MS-DOS (FAT32) volume and all utility used .iso comes from Microsoft. I don't understand why I can't have my. ISO recognized by the system.

    Help please :)

    This is normal and expected behavior. Your 2011 Mac does not support the USB Windows installation. You must use a physical DVD burned ISO. Your Mac does not officially support Windows 10. The ISO files are available at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/home .

    Documentation on Apple's site shows not all models. Please visit https://help.apple.com/bootcamp/mac/5.0/help/ for an older version (FC5).

  • Cannot install Windows 7 on Envy 14-1211nr of HP recovery disc sent twice

    Cannot install Windows 7 on Envy 14-1211nr of HP recovery disc sent twice

    The Recovery Manager starts well. He correctly completed the following steps:
    1 format HDD

    2. copy the files from the CD to the drive. It copies all the 3 CD.

    Then he ask the driver (the 4th CD) CD. Once I have this CD, then after awhile I get messge below:

    Contact HP support

    In most cases, recover the hard disk will solve your problems.

    If your problem persists, you may have to contact HP support. Find details of support HO in the documentation of your PC.

    After that I see above meaage the only button I can click is "Finish". Once I click on finish, then in a minute, I get a message that "recovery completed successfully.

    The laptop restarts and displays the message on the screen "Bootmger" not found

    I called HP support and asked to run the hard drive and memory test and he succeeded.

    I can install windows on another CD I have with.

    But I can't install WIndows using the recovery CD, I received from HP. It's the 2nd CD series that I received these don't work or the other.

    I have two identical laptops. Tried installing on both and having the same problem on both.

    Can you please help with this.

    Hello

    Here is another solution, you can try to see if you can get Windows 7 to install correctly.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    You can create an installation disk yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the version exact same origin supplied with your laptop ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

    Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

    Hello

    I see that you have a problem in the installation of new Windows USB port. It seems that your HDD was not detected, right? It's because your laptop uses a SATA HDD.

    what you need to do are:

    1. download the driver AHCI SATA website of intel. (just google it)

    2. copy the files (size 700 KB for 6 files) into the new USB

    3. reboot and install your laptop with win 7 (dvd/usb)

    4. by the time win 7 installation reached the drive to install (none detected), click load drivers.

    5. now load your other USB SATA drivers.

    6. then will show all disks in your system.

    7. continue with the installation process.

    hope this helps.

    Performed troubleshooting: because the error # 80071 A 90 type indicated by the system, I followed the instructions of Windows Help and Support, for example to run Microsoft Fix it which did not work; a more advanced method has also been used, who recommended to start Windows Update in Mode safe, then open Windows Update and install the updates and then restart normally.

  • Cannot install windows XP on the Satellite Pro A200-1N2

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 - 1N2 PSAE3E and I don't want Vista on my laptop. I downgraded the bios to V5.30 but still cannot install windows xp and there is still no optin for SATA in the bios.

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Did you install the SATA drivers first?
    You need this driver to recognize the HARD drive!

    You must download the Intel Matrix Storage Manager. You should find it on the page of the Toshiba driver or the Intel Web site.

    You must perform the installation of an external USB FDD drive using the F6 key during the installation of Win XP.
