    Hi everyone,


    Just a problem I am having with my laptop with installing windows 10 with my usb stick when it says where would you like to install windows I only have only one drive listed which is drive 0 unallocated space so I clicked it and it says windows cannot be installed on this drive but I dont have any other drives but I tried cleaning the drive with disk part and also try and create a partition with disk part but of course it dint work and I just need to fix this and I leave a picture down below so you can see what I mean any solutions apart from removing the drive because it's not a removable drive so yes that wouldn't really work

    So any other solutions will be appreciated!

    Many thanks

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

    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...

    Hey everyone
