    need clean install windows 10


    Right now after reading your posts and problems with this clean install, either you actually might have a bad dvd drive or like NavyLCDR posted you are not installing the Windows ISO correctly. The Windows ISO does not take up much space, any DVD that's any good should work as long as it can take 4GB of files. Windows 10 ISO is just a little under 4GB. Here is a screenshot of the files that should be on your dvd disk. (USB stick would be a better option thou.)

    Yes, if your current OS is Windows Home, you can only then you cannot change to Pro. You can only upgrade to the version you have now. Home for Home or Pro for Pro. *Smile
