Windows 10: Unsure what went wrong with WTG Windows To Go OS on USB HDD Hard Disk Drive

I'm using an HP Compaq nc6320 with Windows 7 Ultimate:I keep getting BSODs when booting WTG Windows 10 x86 from USB HDD for the first time:I need a Windows x86 OS in order to run WDR. Rufus' software used to create the WTG OS on the USB HDD support told me that there is nothing wrong with the WTG software but the problem is more of an installation issue.

W7 Hard drive partition issue

to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

- press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
- diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
- list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
- select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
- clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
- create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
- exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
- click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that

 

Hard Disk Drive (HDD) seen as Solid State Drive in Optimize Drives

Hi Joshua,

Which hard drive is an external and internal?

Did you checked the hard drive is visible when you go to This PC?

I suggest you to type diskmgmt.msc in the start search and hit enter.

Check if you can see both hard drives.

You may also uninstall and then reconnect the external hard drive and check.

This method resolves issues where the currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or corrupt.

• Click Start, type Device Manager in the Search
  box
• Click Device Manager from the returned list.
• Click Disk Drives from the list of hardware
• Right-click the USB external hard drive with the issue, and click Uninstall.
• After the hard drive is uninstalled, unplug the USB cable.
• Wait for 1 minute and then reconnect the USB cable. The driver should automatically load
• Check for the USB drive in Windows Explorer.

Please update us with the status. We will be glad to assist you.
