    Windows won't install after I factory reset it


    I was planning on selling my PC so I decided to factory reset it then reinstall Windows but well... now it doesn't want to work at all. Whenever I go to install Windows using a media usb it just tells me "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. Setup does not support configuration of or installation to disks connected through a USB or IEEE 1394 port." Like what is this lol? Is it reading my NVMe as an external SSD or something? I've basically done every fix imaginable and nothing is working. It also doesn't even read the USB I put the windows 10 installation on, it doesn't pop up in the menu

    :)

    How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

    Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


    First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

    I will assume that these devices belong to you.

    step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
    step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
    step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
    step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
    step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
    step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

    Break command list: Break Commands

    Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

    If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
