    Trying to install Windows beside Arch Linux


    Hi, I need to have both Arch and Windows on my SSD disk. I've created unallocated space on my SSD, and successfully uploaded windows .iso file to my usb drive. I booted into Windows installation screen, chose the language, and when I supposed to choose partition to put my windows on, I got this warning. Tried to install Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver beside my Windows .iso, but didn't have enough space on my usb drive. Tried also to use DISKPART in cmd of the Windows installation, but it doesn't see my SSD. What is the problem, and what should I do? Thank you for your help.

    :)
     

  2. Trying to remove Arch Linux and install Windows 10, no luck

    Hello. I am trying to install Windows 10 on a laptop that currently has Arch Linux installed, but it seems to refuse to boot from my USB. It is a HP Pavillion x360 laptop that currently has Arch Linux installed, and I am giving it away and am trying to install Windows 10, but whenever I try to boot it, it refuses to. I have tried making the USB with both Rufus and the Media Creation Tool, and neither worked. Can anyone help me?
