Help, cant create windows image

Hello there, @fullinfusion!

It seems like some sort of an OS confusion has happened with your secondary WD Black and I'm sorry to hear about that. *Frown
Maybe re-formatting it would help indeed as the community already mentioned. I'd suggest to take a look at this step-by-step how to partition and format an HDD: http://products.wdc.com/support/kb.ashx?id=PYCoid
Keep in mind that this will wipe clean the drive, so you should backup all important data from the drive somewhere else.
I noticed from the screenshots that your HDD appears as Disk 0, this means that it's plugged in the primary SATA port where the SSD (as an OS drive) should be. Actually it is possible that because of this Windows cannot create the image there. Swap the ports of the SSD and the HDD, this might help as well.

Keep me posted. Hope this helped! *Smile

I'm installing a new SSD

MVP for 7 years - That's pretty awesome - Good Job !

When I run the installation media for installing the new SSD should I select

Create installation media for another PC and then skip the step to enter the product key or select the option that notes I'm reinstalling windows ?

I think I've used the installation for repair. I'll be glad to get the SSD installed so I can get back to production.
