Windows refuses to set up on SSD devices.
Windows refuses to set up on SSD devices.
Hello everyone, I've already shared this in the troubleshooting section, but it hasn't gotten much attention yet. Perhaps someone here knows how to fix it. I recently swapped my old HDD for a new SSD and had to rely on Acer eRecovery Management. I created a recovery partition using three disks. Everything seems to be working now, but after installing Windows, I encountered an error: "Error=1005 (the volume does not contain a recognized file system)." Please check that all necessary drivers are installed and the volume isn't corrupted. What should I do next?
I recommend starting with a fresh setup since I faced the same issue and needed to remove all existing data. Make sure no other drives are connected before proceeding.
I've been working on this all morning. My approach is to burn Windows 7 onto DVDs using Acer eRecovery Management. After that, I disconnect my HDD and connect an SSD. When I insert the DVD, the installation begins, but I encounter an error while copying files.
Consider linking both disks, locate the Disk Manager on your Windows 8.1 system, and format the SSD despite the error message indicating the OS was burned. If you have the original CD, it would be preferable. Alternatively, use a USB drive to install the OS (Linus provided a tutorial for that).
I’ve already prepared the SSD and experimented with it in the disk manager. The original Windows CD isn’t available to me. In this update of Acer eRecovery Management, I’m limited to burning disks, not installing it via USB.
It functions properly? Checks if Linux sets up correctly on your system. 3. Is the hard drive connected during installation?
It finally worked! Here's what I did: To change a GUID partition table disk into a master boot record disk using command line Back up or move all volumes on the basic GUID partition table (GPT) disk you want to convert into a master boot record (MBR) disk. Open an elevated command prompt and type diskpart. If the disk does not contain any partitions or volumes, skip to step 6. At the DISKPART prompt (right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as Administrator), type list disk. Make note of the disk number you want to delete. At the DISKPART prompt, type select disk <disknumber>. At the DISKPART prompt, type clean. ImportantImportant Running the clean command will delete all partitions or volumes on the disk. At the DISKPART prompt, type convert mbr. Once completed, type exit and resume installation of Windows. Source: http://www.tomshardw...40-evo-ssd.html That guy is a lifesaver.
