    HD failure after installing Win 10


    I just installed Win 10 Home on a PC that had been running Win 8.1. I did not upgrade, I did a complete install. The install & activation went fine , but shortly afterwards the HD has apparently failed, as now on startup all it will do is check the disk for a long time and then report that it can't be repaired. I have ordered a new HD.


    My Win 10 was the downloaded version, onto a USB drive. I have the drive, also order #, product key etc. How do I install this Win 10 on the new HD? I sure don't want to buy another copy!!!

    :)

  3. Win 10 install failure

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community,

    I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if that helps.


    • Press Windows + X and select Command Prompt( Admin).

    • In the command prompt window, type fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\. (This assumes that C: is the drive in which Windows 10 is installed. If Windows is installed on another drive, change the drive letter accordingly.)

    • Restart your computer.

    • Download and install the update again.
    Let us know status of the issue, We will be glad to assist you.

    Win 10 install failure

    Hi - Anyone have any knowledge of a Code 8009000B installation failure for Win 10 (install from Win 7)?

    Repeated attempts to install produce the same code failure.

    Thanks
