Windows 10: We couldn't install windows in the location you chose. 0x80300024

Switched on my Acer laptop and got an error 'No bootable device'. Then created a bootable pendrive and loaded Windows 10. Now when I'm trying to install, I'm getting the error 'We couldn’t install Windows in the location you chose. Please check your media drive, Error 0x80300024.'Tried diskpart in cmd, it is showing disk 0 with 930 GB but when I do list volume, it shows 'No volumes found'I want to completly format my laptop and do a fresh Windows installation. Kindly help.

After many (I mean many) failed attempts to install 1709 over the last week, I decided to do a clean install.

Bad luck... also that failed.

Can't do a clean install - tried various times.

My last attempt was to (again) boot from USB (with 1709),
then do : diskpart clean
Reboot
select drive
format
then [next]

"We couldn't install Windows in the location you chose. Please check your media drive. Here's moreinfo about what happened: 0x80300024"

Is there another solution rather than having to detach all the drives (many), being a complex job as the connectors are difficult to be reached. Microsoft can't expect users to detach the hardware...







the drive is a SSD

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hey everyone

Recently i bought a SSD and mounted it in my laptop (the dvd drive is replaced by the SSD).

After that i tried to install windows on the SSD, but when i chose the SSD i couldnt go to the next step. There was a notification :
