    Windows Installation


    Hi, I recently built my first gaming PC and I wanted to install windows 10 home on it but when I get the the installation part I keep getting an error that says "Windows could not prepare the computer to boot into the next phase of the installation. To install windows restart the installation". Well I tried restarting and the same thing happened. I also had an issue with windows saying "could not create another partition" or "We cant install windows on this partition" so I followed some instructions saying to delete the partitions until you get allocated space and then it should install fine. That still didn't work. Also, I had an issue getting the media creation tool to work with my San disk 16 gb drive. It would get to 100% and say "we had a problem running this tool on your computer but when I downloaded the ISO directly onto my computer it worked just fine. Does anyone have a solution for these or can someone instruct me on how to install windows from the very beginning please so that I can avoid any errors please? Thank you.

    :)

    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
