Greetings,

I am attempting to install Windows 7 onto my first SSD, and I seem to be running into a little problem.

When I get to "Where do you want to install Windows?", I see the drive, I select it and click on New and create the full size of the partition, I click on Format, then I click next, but I get the following error:

Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the log files for more information.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I don't have any other drives connected, internal or external, and I am installing from DVD.

Well, I went back and tried this again, and this time it worked without me specifying. Thank you!
