• Setup could not create a new partition system

  Ok.  I just built a new rig.  ASUS P55 intel chipset mobo.  I have two WD Caviar Black hard drives and a RAID-1 array.

  I installed my OEM WIN-7-64 operating system several times.  Mostly because my WUSB54GC Linksys adapter wireless crashes my OS WIN because of a compatibility problem.

  Long story short: the last time my OS crashed he would not be stopped, kept grinding and grinding so I stopped it "hard."  Then when I tried to restart it kept a black window stall without launching.  So I decided to start over with a clean install.

  Big mistake!

  When I got to the place where you want to install? I had onlyl only one possibility, I created a RAID-1 array with 1 TB WD caviar drives two of the screen.  Then, I started to FORMAT it the disc for the drive I want to install WIN 7-64 on.  That was the big mistake.  Previously, I was able to install WIN 7 several times, but after formatting the HARD drive, I received the message "Setup could not create a new partition system.  I can't find the logs and I tried all of the suggestions that I have found here and does not.

  I have an ASUS P55-Deluxe mobo with two 1 to WD Caviar black HDs in a matrix RAID-1.

  I tried to reinstall WIN 7, with the HDD BIOS on IDE.  It worked once in what concerns the installation of the OS, but whenever I try to recreate the RAID array, I get the bloody message "Setup could not create a new partition system!

  I tried using partition of drive on BACK in but nothing works.

  Of course, here, someone has the same problem and has a solution.

  Help, please!

  Hi Steve,.

  On another forum, I read to remove the battery from the motherboard and wait 10 minutes before turning.  Not only did it clears the CMOS memory, but "remains".  After that, I was able to partition my RAID-1 disk, format the partition, load my drivers and install WIN 7.

  Thanks for the quick response!

  Then, enter the BIOS and configure the DVD drive as the first boot device.

• Error: "could not create a new partition or locate a" when installing Windows via Boot Camp 10

  This error occurs on my 2012 15-inch MacBook Pro. I have 2 hard drives. One dedicated to OSX and one for Windows. This is my first install bootcamp. I let bootcamp create partitions, but to the partition/disk screen hard to choose, I get a message saying: "we could not create a new partition or locate a.. The partition has been formatted to NTFS. I tried later in this guide community post here: error: "we could not create a new partition or locate and existing" install Windows via Bootcamp 8.1, but no luck. I even tried to delete the partitions and create a partition empty for windows so it can create and format on its own and start using EFI. At this point, windows begins to install it and restart, but it fails during the part material recording and restarts. Then when it starts again I get a message that the installation has failed.

  Here's some output terminal which can help you to (I) hope.

  You must disconnect the internal bus 500 GB SATA drive and use a flashdrive USB2 for OS X from startup. The 320 GB designated drive must be in the main Bay of the Mac. Once Windows is installed, reconnect your 500 GB drive in the Optibay (if you this road main Bay) will be Windows blue screen in most cases.

• Setup could not create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition

  After the removal of ubuntu, I decided to reinstall windows 7. To my surprise even after formatting the drive to NTFS, I get the following error when you try to install, "Setup was unable to create a new partition system or locate an existing partition in the system."

  I would appreciate it if explain you how to fix this, rather than post links.

  Use the Creation Wizard to Partition (free version): http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html

  First create a bootable CD: http://www.partitionwizard.com/partition-wizard-bootable-cd.html

  Boot from the CD and Partition Wizard to delete all existing partitions and rebuild the Master Boot Record (MBR).

  Then using partition Wizard create a 350 MB NTFS partition, mark it as a 'System' and 'active '.

  Then, create a partition for Windows 7.

  Boot from the Windows 7 installation media, and when asked where you want to install Windows select the partition that you created for Windows using the Assistant Creation of Partition.

  I have Win XP on my Dell Dimension 5150, which is the dual boot with Linux Mint 12 Lisa and this is my favorite of the bunch.

  I bought the DVD of 8 Pro Windows by an Australian retailer.

  Win XP is on a 39 GB partition with other application files. I had to delete several files to get the free space necessary to WIN 8 and finally finished by formatting the partition and passes for a COMPLETE new installation.

  Unfortunately, I now get the "failed to create new partition or find existing. For more information, see the Setup log file"error message. I can't find a Setup log file that I do a boot from the DVD.

  I tried to delete all external drives and other USB devices, including my Modem but my Wired USB keyboard/mouse.

  Hello

  I solved the problem. It seems that you can not install on a secondary partition with in an earlier version of windows. You must restart the computer and run the installation from a dvd or other media.  Once you get the installation running you should be able to install on another partition without any problems.

  Remove the data cable of all drives except the drive that you want to install Windows 7 on.

  Remove all external devices.

  Delete all partitions on the disk leave all of the disc as "unallocated".

  Boot from the Windows 7 DVD and then install, when you reach the point where it asks you to select a drive, click the "Advanced" option and create a new partition (at least 50 GB) to install Windows and continue with the installation process.
