    Receiving strange error codes when trying to do a clean install of Windows 10


    In the middle of updating Windows 10 a message said that the update couldn't be completed and the update would be removed. Then the PC froze and I couldn't boot back into Windows. After failing to recover using my original installer USB drive -- I kept getting insufficient space available messages -- I decided to reformat and do a clean install. But that didn't work; I kept getting the insufficient space available messages.I then downloaded the latest ISO Win10_21H2_English_x64.iso and made a new bootable USB drive. That hasn't worked either, even after several reformats of the target drive.

    :)

    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.
