    cant install windows 8 on my cruciall ssd drive

    During the windows install process, when it asks you where you want to install Windows, delete all the partitions on the drive. It should leave you with one unallocated space. Select that to install Windows 8. Note, this will delete everything on the drive.

    Yeah, that was going to be my next suggestion. You can actually access the command prompt from inside the Windows installer, then run DiskPart and do a Clean command on the drive.
