my old mobo popped and i had to grab a new one, i went from an old
z68 + i52400 to a b85 + i54460
i had no chance to back up my files from my hdd so i decided to just willy nilly install my mobo and boot, this ended up in me using my win 7 bootable usb to try and reinstall windows
this hdd is one i got recently and i had a fresh win 7 on it with not much stuff, so i decided to just blast it.
but.. when i booted from my usb it wouldnt ask for a fresh install of windows 7, instead i get taken to system repair and it asks me to repair my computer, i decided to use diskpart via comand prompt
i cleaned it and formated the drive..
thing is when i restarted and rebooted from the usb it would still automatically take me to the system recovery options... i have no idea why.. i have no experience with using diskpart and just followed some guides i found online, did i do something wrong? is there a way to reset my hdd back to factory default so i can just get this over with and reinstall windows fresh.
