Oct 8, 2010I have tried numerous times on my PC to install Windows 7 onto my Sata Drive to no avail. Yet as soon as I plug in my IDE HD it installs fine.I have unplugged all external peripherals USB and internal Card Reader. Set my Bios ok as it sees both the Hard Drive and DVD fine (Both in the bios and during selection of hard drive during windows 7 installation). Yet when I come to install it, it craps out at a random percentage saying cannot read from source or worse yet it crawls so slow through the percentages (I really don't think Windows 7 should take 6 hours to get to 15%!!) Yet both the hard drive and dvd are fine and the disc works great on my other PC without the sata drive in.
My motherboard is a Biostar G31-M7 TE with latest bios now what is odd is that I recently updated the BIOS to the latest one so does my problem come from here or was it always going to be a problem on this board? Also when I do have Windows 7 installed on the IDE drive when I plug in ther sata drive inside the whole system goes belly up (from freezes when transferring large files to just not seeing the drive)
Install Windows 7 Onto A Different Drive Letter/drive?
Mar 22, 2012I have a new copy of windows y 64 bit ultimate. I currently use w7 64 home premium and it is on C drive and the drive is a sata 2 drive. But when I build my new system I want to install onto a new drive which is sata 6.0 and I have made a partition on that drive (letter M) for the O/S to be installed onto ( ive allowed 150Gb ).
So my question is when I build my system and am ready to install w7 can I install onto drive M on the new sata 6.0 drive?
I will unplug the old boot drive as I understand windows will boot to that if I dont unplug it, then when I have installed new O/S on the new drive, partition "M", I will plug it back in and format the old boot drive.
So then windows will boot to drive/partition M, if that works, and C drive will just become a data drive. I understand I probably will have to do some messing in bios, so any help with that will be good.
this will be my 1st build but I am not to bad with computers and have changed cpu's/HD's/gpu's/fans etc etc. but not mobo's and cases. And never changed a O/S onto another drive with a different boot drive letter.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHow To Install Windows 7 From A USB Drive
Jan 25, 2009Installs from a flash drive tend to take about 75% of the time it takes with a DVD. On my C2Q Q6600 it meant 20 mins instead of 29.This is for those who are having issues with running from a DVD, or just want to try it out/get it done faster.Back up the files from your USB drive, as it WILL get formatted in this process and all data on it will be lost!
1. Get a USB Drive, it must be at least 4 GB.
2. Plug the drive into your PC.
3. Open a command prompt as administrator. (Right click, Open as Admin, or Ctrl+Shift+ Click)
4. Get the drive number by typing:diskpart list disk On my machine the USB disk was number 1.
5. Format the drive by typing:
-select disk 1
-clean
-create partition primary
-select partition 1
-active
-format fs=NTFS
-assign
-exit
6. Mount the Windows 7 beta iso or insert the disk.
7. Navigate to the boot directory cd E:oot (Where E is the drive letter of the DVD)
8. Using bootsect, we’ll make the USB drive a bootable NTFS drive, ready for a Windows 7 image: bootsect /nt60 F: (Where F is the drive letter of the USB Drive)
9. Close the command prompt
10. Copy the installation files from the mounted Windows 7 iso/disk to the USB drive.
11. Reboot the PC, and enter the BIOS (OR you can move to the boot manager menu, usually by pressing F10 if supported)
12. Set the boot priority to boot the USB drive first.
13. Install Windows 7.

Nov 11, 2011I�m trying to install Windows 7 on my backup computer. I initially installed it from the setup but the C drive is too small so I cannot install other programs so I want to install it on a larger hard drive. I have a larger hard drive that I formatted but I can�t seem to install Windows 7 on that drive. If I remove the C drive where the original one is installed and replace it with the larger drive I can�t boot from the reformatted C drive. I created a recovery disk and can make some progress but it still won�t let me install Windows 7 on the almost empty disk.The setup says it is the secondary not the primary and I can�t seem to force it to be the primary although it is recognized in the setup. If I put the original disk with Windows 7 back in I can boot up and run the install but I don�t think there is a way to install it on a drive that is not the C drive so that The larger drive is then visible and I can open the few small files I put on it as a test so I know the drive is ok. I tried putting the restore files on the larger disk but that doesn�t work.

Jun 23, 2012I have an Alienware M15x and the CD drive will not read anything I put into it. It'll suck the disc in, make the noise like its reading it but nothing happens. I've tried a fixit tool from microsoft and when it queues me to put the disc in it says it can't detect anything. This is a problem because I want to completely wipe my computer and start fresh.I checked my device drivers and everything seems to be fine except for one yellow exclamation mark that says my bluetooth peripheral device is missing. Not really sure if that's the problem but I just thought I'd throw that in there
View 3 Replies View RelatedWindows 7 Won't Install Even On New Hard Drive
Aug 20, 2012My rig recently had a few problems with external hard drive so I decided probably a corrupt windows install and tried to reinstall Win 7. Everytime I try to install, I get to that blue windows 7 background (the one you see during the whole install) and a mouse cursor. I can move the mouse cursor, but it never moves from there. I waited 30 minutes to no avail.
So far I've tried
- Clearing BIOS
- Trying with only 1 stick of ram, with each stick.
- Reseating graphics card
- Cleaning heatsink/grills
Still nothing, it just get's stuck there. I've reinstalled Windows using this same disk, on this same desktop, a good 3 or 4 times. The disk is fine, I also know, because I installed it on a friends PC not even 2 weeks ago (after I started having the problem). I can no longer reboot into Windows, nor install it. Also tried another new hard drive to install it on, same thing.
Specs:
AMD Phenom II 975 BE
8GB DDR3 1333 RAM
450 GTS 1gb GDDR5 (Galaxy)
500w PSU ( I believe CoolerMaster or Hyper... not sure)

View 8 Replies View RelatedHow To Install Windows 7 To Alternate Drive Other Than C
Apr 6, 2010I have a brand new hard disk on which I would like to install Windows 7 (Enterprise Edition). I actually want to install the OS to a drive other than C, let's say drive L. Up through Windows XP the following method worked: In the setup, I would partition the drive and make logical drives of the minimum size from C to K, with a final one, L, big enough for the OS and everything else. I could tell the install program to install Windows in L. A few system files would be in C, all the rest in L. Then after I deleted partitions D-K and fixed a line in C:oot.ini to compensate for that, everything was fine.
In my brief experience trying to install Windows 7 on my new drive, this technique does not work. There is no easy way to create logical drives during the install from DVD/ISO procedure and even when I tried creating three small partitions ahead of a large partition as the target partition, Windows still installed itself in drive C. I know it is possible for Windows 7 to install itself to other drives (I've read other posts where people have complained about this), I just don't know how to force Windows to install itself on a drive with a specific alternate letter.

View 2 Replies View RelatedRe-install Of Windows 7 With RAID 0 Drive
Nov 20, 2010My PC is currently using a single RAID 0 drive that contains my Windows install and all my data in a single partition C: (I'm well backed up so happy with the risk of RAID0)
The RAID0 drive is setup by my motherboard controller so Windows just sees the one drive.
I am thinking of adding an separate drive for windows, hopefully an SSD. I would like to do a fresh install of Windows 7 on the new disk then rename the old RAID0 drive to something different such as D: . Then reorganise it into just a data disk.
My question is.. will the new Windows 7 installation just see the old RAID0 disk as another disk? I know this would work witha normal disk, but does RAID0 transfer over to a new installation ok?
