    I was re-installing windows, while I was doing that, I accidentally ran clean all command...


    Yesterday was reinstalling my pc, I wanted to clean my c disk not clean all and accidentally typed clean all, so I got scared, and reset my pc. I'm confused, and scared, and I feel like ill need to buy a new disk :cI boot inside BIOS, I can see my disk there, but it doesn't show up in installation. I tried installing Intel rapid storage technology, but it doesn't work in windows installation.I can see my disk in diskpart -> list volume aswell.I have 1 disk.Tried adding a volume to the disk from installation, didn't work.I don't know what to add else... sorry..'feel free to ask any questio

    Clean Install Workaround for Vista

    You may remember this news story on techPowerUp! a couple of days ago relating to the lack of clean installs when using the Upgrade Editions of Vista, which required an old OS to be installed. However, Paul Thurrott has managed to find a workaround for this issue, which ironically lets users do a clean install Vista without any previous version of Windows, albeit a little tedious. Here are the steps:
    • Boot from the Windows Vista Upgrade DVD as normal
    • When prompted for a product code, leave this blank
    • Select the version of Vista you have purchased and let Vista install
    • When you boot to your desktop for the first time, run the Vista setup from Windows
    • This time enter your product key
    • When asked whether you want to do an Upgrade of Custom install, select custom and choose a clean install
    • Windows will now install for a second time and you should be able to activate it
    Remember, these steps are only advised for use in order to achieve a clean install of Vista, it is only legal to use the upgrade editions if you have previously purchased the appropriate version of Windows.

    cant install windows 8 on my cruciall ssd drive

    Yeah, that was going to be my next suggestion. You can actually access the command prompt from inside the Windows installer, then run DiskPart and do a Clean command on the drive.

    GPU-Z what command line parameter ?

    Suggestion: /? (-?) and /help (-help) command-line arguments to show a list of all possible arguments in a small window. *Smile I was re-installing windows, while I was doing that, I accidentally ran clean all command... :)
