Windows 10: What's the Problem with Clean Install of Windows 10 Pro 64 bit

Surely someone at Microsoft has figured this out by now.


I delete all the partitions on my SSD C: drive to get all unallocated space, then select it as where I want to install Windows. Starts with Installing Windows, i.e. copying files. After a few seconds at the end of phase 1, Collecting information, I get a message:


The installation was canceled

Any changes to your computer won't be saved

Windows Setup

Windows could not prepare the computer to boot into the next phase of

installation. To install Windows, restart the installation.


This just keeps going in circles every time I try. Is there something I am doing wrong?

Windows 10 pro 64-bit clean installation issue?

Hi,

Did clean install of windows 10 64-bit version but noticed few things which is as followers.

• While clean installing I had chosen "Custom: Install Windows only (advanced) " and formatted and wiped all the partition. Created new partition and noticed that system reserved 500MB. Whereas I have read in some website that system reserved 100MB or 350MB.
  But why in my case it has allotted 500MB for system reserved ?
• After clean installation successfully found my desktop wallpaper is same which was there In my previous OS. Since I have chosen clean install then why default wallpaper had not displayed? How come it displayed my previous OS wallpaper?
• In Control Panel Items I have noticed that Flash player (32-bit) why Flash player 64-bit is not installed?
• Any latest drivers for NVIDIA GeForce 7100 / NVIDIA nForce 630i for windows 10? Please mention latest driver version.
• I have 4GB installed memory (RAM) but it says only 3.87 GB usable whereas my system type is 64-bit OS, x64-based processor. Why it is not using all 4GB RAM even though my OS is 64-bit?
• Did clean install was done properly due to above problem?

Or

I am ready to reinstall windows 10 64-bit OS again if I made any mistake (based on above question)

Thanks in advance for helping my queries.

Bye,

Siva

Clean Windows 10 (?PRO?) install

I have bought a legit "Windows 10 Pro" key of a key website. It is legit since i'm currently using it for over a year now. I currently have Windows 10 Pro installed on my PC and I want to do a clean install. I just can't find the windows 10 Pro download in the tool. But if i could use a windows 10 pro key with a normal windows 10 install, I'll be good to go.
