    Can’t Reinstall Windows


    My computer was pretty laggy so I wanted to reset it. The reset tool in settings didn’t work so I made a USB with the windows 10 install tool. I booted into it and formatted my C: and tried to install windows on it. It said couldn’t create a partition or locate one. I had ubuntu on my pc aswell so I booted into that and made a new USB. Then I booted into the new one and deleted the C: again and clicked next and it starred installing but at the end when it was done it said It couldn’t boot to the next phase or something and said to restart the installer.

    :)

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Can’t Reinstall Windows :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

    Reinstall Windows?

    You don't need to reinstall windows. Go to the device manager and remove uninstall the processor and motherboard drivers listed. When you start the system back up you should be able to re-install the new ones. I just changed my mobo/processor Friday, everything is fine.

    BTW I have seen some reviews that state practically no difference in using more than 2gb of ram.
