  1. Can't install Windows 10 on my SSD


    I have an Acer Nitro 5 with a Gigabyte 512gb ssd and a WD 1TB hhd. Recently after installing Ubuntu on my hdd (because i didn't want to change the sata mode), I also wanted a clean Windows install. So I created a boot usb from media creation tool and go forward with it. It didn't work. I got the "We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one" error, which i spent a significant amount of time trying to search for a solution.

    Stuffs i tried: - Format my ssd - use diskpart to clean, convert my ssd partition table to gpt, etc like every guide online recommends. - Make another boot usb, this time with rufus. Didn't work.

    Stuffs I didn't try: - Temporarily disconnect my hdd. I don't have the tools to do that physically, and my acer uefi has zero options regarding this, like most guides suggests. - Change to bios-legacy boot mode. There's no option in the uefi.

    I think it would be fine if i try to install windows on my hdd though, but haven't try it yet. All I know is installing windows on a ssd is much harder but didn't expect it to produce this much annoyance.

    I heard there's an option to install on a HDD, the. use a third party tool to copy it to a SSD, but i haven't look into it.

    Thanks for any help given..

    Can't install Windows 10 on my SSD

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
