I bought Goodram 240Gb CL100 SSD. Can't format it or install Win7 "64 Ultimate either. I use usb pen drive installer with SP1 and latest key updates. In BIOS i switched IDE to AHCI. In cmd window I type what in this tutorial is

but then I get I/O error. I swapped usb ports. Same problem. That's weird because I had similar case with my hdd that probably died. Bios and installer detect my new ssd though. Just won't install.

Specs: Phenom 9550
Gigabyte Ma770ud3
8gbram
420w psu
Gtx970 palit

if there is io error than either drive is bad or your sata ports are bad

use diskpart
list disk command will tell you all your drives
select disk X command will select disk , replace X with that disk number (in your video its disk 0)
clean command will wipe your drive
try installing windows after clean completed

Yeah after entering "clean" a I/O error occurs. It won't clean it. It's listed as disk 0 so I did that typing "select disk 0"

than it cant communicate with that drive

how is drive connected?

Thanks a lot. I switched to different sata cables. And these are the same cables that 1 of my hdd drives usually uses and it works.

Unfortunately there's another error. Drive not ready. Exception Processing Message 0xc00000a3 - unexpected parameters. I can't skip it. Cancel, Retry nor Continue won't work. It's in Win7 configuring menu after you set time and zone. Even X button won't help.

0xc00000a3 means drive is not ready
you sure your mainboard or drive itself isnt faulty?

Could be since it's so old and I sometimes have problems with F8 to get to system mode and other features but nevermind. I dunno what I just did but I randomly alt tabbed, saw 2 same error messages, clicked X to exit and voila. It's ready to go now. Once again thank you for all your support. Cheers!
