  1. “Windows could not prepare the computer to boot into the next phase” error


    Hello,

    I have been building my first gaming pc and I need to install Windows 10 (64 bit). I’m using a USB, installing without a key for now, and booting it from the SSD.

    I’ve unplugged my hard drive from the power supply, so it’s not an option. However, when I delete all the partitions from the previous attempt to install Windows and try again, I get the message “windows could not prepare the computer to boot into the next phase” and it tells me to restart the install. However, no matter how many times I do it it doesn’t work.

    How do I fix this?
