Windows 7 Installation problem!
Hey guys!

As much computer problems i have encountered i cant get passed this one!

Trying to install Windows 7 using a usb and receiving this error:

"Setup was unable to create a new system partition..."

Tried the following:

1. Creating partions myself
2. Cleaning using CMD
3. Changing boot order
4. Changing SATA settings to IDE.


P.s. I completely formatted and deleted all the partions before and deleted the system drive and recovery by mistake.


The laptop is a custom built one, and i dont know the specs! so i doubt it will help.


Thanks guys!
