The Windows 7 Installer refuses to install on an empty formatted partition

I have two partitions.

C: (149,04 GB) contains a professional Windows 7 workgroup

In management records shows this partition "healthy (Boot, Page file for crash dump, Primary Partition)"

D: (149,04 GB) is totally empty, newly formatted

In Disk Management displays this partition "healthy (System, active, primary Partition).

Have tried three times to install a different version of Windows 7 on D: but installation is refused with Setup stating that he cannot find a partition and then install cannot continue.

Should what steps I consider with D: for her to accept a Windows installation?

One thing that concerns me regarding any thing with D: is the possibility to get the dreaded "BOOTMGR is missing" when I restart the computer.

I made a mistake making D: partition Active?  If this is the case, how to cancel it?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for the answers, people.  I solved the problem by buying a new computer in the last 24 hours.

Now hoping to unload my HP Pavilion slimline with a Windows 7 Pro workgroup but VERY picky DVD player vertical for £50 or more for all those who wish to collect London NW10.

  • When to remove the Windows 7 installation disc during installation

    Hello;

    I read the response on the withdrawal of the installation disc. "After the first restart, change the settings to boot from the hard drive.

    Exactly where the first reboot happens so I can see for this? For example. After the installation of windows files.

    After developing the windows files.

    After installing the updates. I tried 4 times with a facility clean and every time, because it is always start from the disc, windows loops in the installation all over again.

    Than you

    Phil

    Wait while Windows installs

    When this phase of installation is completed, Windows will restart automatically and restart in Setup again. You can unplug it at this stage.

  • Where can I get a copy of the Windows XP installation for my sister. His was a virus and I had to format the drive. It's a registered computer

    Where can I get a copy of the Windows XP installation for my sister. His was a virus and I had to format the drive. It's a registered computer. I have it ready for the operating system but I need to download a copy so I can retrieve my CD-ROM/DVD-Rom drive, so I can then bring to its system and reinstall the XP and then if she wants that we can get a windows 8. I use windows 8 on this system, I bought a few months ago and it's satisfying, but I don't understand why when I got it I could do things like using the keyboard of the screen with my fingers, but now I can't even use the keyboard mouse. It won't work at all. In a way I found it better that way at the beginning because I do a lot of typing and it would freeze until I was constantly stressed. I returned to Windows 7 mode I think but not sure.  All I know is that these two things have never worked correctly, so if they are still under warranty I will bring to the Future Shop and maybe they can fix it. I wish I could turn on and off easily so it does not interfere with my writing and study of a language second.

  • How can I boot from the Windows 7 Installation CD so that I can reformat the hard drive before reinstalling Windows 7?

    How can I boot from the Windows 7 Installation CD so that I can reformat the hard drive before reinstalling Windows 7?  I have already reinstalled Windows 7 from the CD, but that has not solved my problems.  When I put the factory CD in my CD player, it won't always boot from the CD.  When I put my Windows 7 Ultimate CD in the CD drive, it doesn't always start from the CD.         I realize that the reformatting is not always necessary, but I caught a few viruses (despite anti-virus running) and I need to start with a clean hard drive.

    You must go into the BIOS and change the boot on CD order
    first push.

    How to get into your BIOS? It is not dependent on Windows, but on what he
    motherboard/BIOS card that you have. In fact, you need access to the
    BIOS before Windows begins to start. A common method is to press
    the key delete when you turn on first, but this is not necessarily true
    for your computer. Watch the display carefully when you start first;
    There is often a message here to tell you what to do. If this is not the case, check
    your system documentation or check with your provider.

  • Iso file of windows xp can directly be installed USB on a formatted hard drive?

    Iso file of windows xp can directly be installed USB on a formatted hard drive?

    Not directly.

    There is a SMALL chance that if your hardware supports it (unfortunately never say you anything on your PC or BIOS), you can boot from a USB stick or an optical drive and install Windows XP like this.
    But it is unlikely.
    In addition, tell us what you mean by 'windows xp iso file. This is very vague, and we do not know what you are talking about.
    Finally, if you want to ask questions here, really read the answers and recognize them in some way. Here is a link to your other thread:

    Hi the prey,

    ·         What is the brand and model of the computer?

    You should check the settings of the computer BIOS (Basic Input\Output System) to boot from the CD/DVD. Check the manual or the support of the computer Web site for the same.

    Note: Be careful when you change the BIOS settings. The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it is possible to change a setting that can prevent your computer from starting properly.

    Run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to see if your computer is compatible to install Windows 7.

  • Problems with the windows 10 installation partitions

    So I try to install windows 10 via bootcamp on my macbook pro 2012.

    However, I still have problems when I get to the screen of partition on windows 10 installation.

    So I opened the USB BOOT EFI and install from there.

    I enter my product key, accept the license, and I'm greeted by the partitioning. I select the bootcamp partition, but it will not format, gives me an error message, or it will allow me to format, but no real format. If I try to delete the partition I can't create a new one, because it gives me an error message. If I try to solve this problem by making the partition EXFAT / FAT always displays the problem. If I format it under OS X EXTENDED it allows me to move forward, but after installation, it simply gives me the blue screen of death trying to boot from the BOOT EFI of SSD.

    No idea how to solve this problem, I am getting very frustrated and frankly upset against apple to give instructions so little.

    Thank you.

  • Bootcamp does not recognize the Windows 7 installation DVD

    Hi guys,.

    I've never had a problem installing Windows 7 via bootcamp on my Mac, but it seems an impossible feat, right now! :))

    I have a Windows 7 bootable *.iso, but since I'm on 2010 Macbook Pro, I have to burn it to a DVD and install from there (I can't find the disk of valuable facilities).

    It is, every time that I burn it, it does not get recognized as a bootable DVD with bootcamp and not appear as a boot disk in the selection screen, you need to keep alt right after the startup chime.

    I tried at different speeds (2 x, 4 x, 8 x). I tried to convert the image using disk utility and selection of DVD/CD master and burning at different speeds.

    I'm in two DVD and I don't know what to do :) I've got El Capitan installed (so less disk utility options).

    Please help! :))
