    How do I Install win10 on a hard drive using a bootable flash drive?


    I downloaded the Media Creation tool and used it and Rufus to create a bootable flash drive.

    I'm ready to use the flash drive for a clean install. There's a tutorial covering this topic - I read it last night, but cannot find it today. Can someone help? I remember there were a number of choices made during installation

  3. third sata drive not bootable ?

    Exactly. On the where do you want to install Windows screen, it has the list of all 3 drives, but when I choose the new drive is when it says it cannot install because the drive is not a bootable drive. If I select one of the other drives with XP installed it doesn't give that message.

    Win10 empty hard drive

    My hard drive which had win10 died. Since it was an out of warranty dell and I don't seem to have any install disks fr win 8, I was trying to make an iso on a flash drive to install on the new drive. However, EVERY time I use the win10 media tool I get
    that 08XXXX error. It will download, just not create the usb drive key.

    Any suggestion?
