So I created a bootable usb 2.0 win 10 boot disk.

Now for the life of me I cant get it to install to it.
240gb Kingston ssd

Tried mbr, tried gpt, nothing..
Diskpart managed it cleaned it etc still same error.
Cannot create partition on this drive...
Any tips?

It's currently working after pulling my hair out for the last 3 hours...
Every single suggestion says you should manually clean then create a partition for windows?

This time around I just selected the ssd, formatted and cleaned it then straight up said install.
For some reason after for saying and creating a partition it said 0mb free space which struck me as odd?

Hopefully this works... then I can just adjust the partition after if necessary.
