Windows 10: Reloading WIN10 from Win0iso file Clean install

Last year I rebuilt my system installed a new SSD in C; position to make the computer boot faster. At the time of the work on my computer I created a Win10 ISO backup.. Well as luck would have it the SSD has failed. it is completely dead. I thought I was safe, with the back-up, but I have been trying to do a clean install, (the only type I can use since the SSD is totalled). I get to the point where the ISO file is being applied, and the install stops and an error message says it cannot find the Win10 drive ???? What do I do now? I start the operation with my Win10 rescue disk, then, after removing that disk from the dvd I replace it with the Win10 iso image disk. The process finds the image ok, and everything looks good. Whaps wrong??

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.
