[SOLVED] Windows 10 installation canceled

[JoshTehNoob]

Hi guys. I wanted to install windows 10 on my ssd. But whenever the installation is almost complete, it suddenly stops and says that the installation was canceled. How do I fix this?

Where did you get your Windows 10 installation from?
What are the components of your PC?

Got it from windows website itself.
One more thing I did wrong is I deleted all the partition of my hdd where my old win10 was installed. Now im stuck haha
I7 2600k processor
Rx 480 4gb
Aerocool 500w
Hp 8200 elite motherboard

Start by having JUST the SSD connected when you try the install.

Did you ever have Windows 10 installed and running on this system - before the Core I5-2600K install?

I think you meant i7 2600k. So yeah windows 10 was running in my hdd when I installed i7 2600k. But now I wanted to use my ssd to boot windows cuz people kept saying it is recommended

Indeed I did.

Let us know how the install goes with just the SSD installed during installation.

It says that it needs to restart to continue but it goes back to the installation. So what im going to try now is go to bios and boot the ssd

 

[JoshTehNoob]

solved my own problem lol. I only needed to change the boot device to my ssd on restart lol. Im so dumb. Done with the installation. Thanks guys

Question now is how I will directly boot from ssd. Every time I open the pc. It boots to the hard drive so it just shows blue screen. I have to go to boot manager in order to boot ssd. Tried boot order didnt work for me.

If you remove the hard drive, does the system boot up from the SSD?

tried it. it works. But then ill be stuck with just the 256gb ssd

Get EasyBCD. You can easily set the booting so it always boots from the SSD. Download it from here: https://neosmart.net/EasyBCD/ . It's very user friendly.

That was just a test. Start the install process once again. When it asks where you want to install, click the advanced option. You should then have the option to format the hard drive. Do so. Once the hard drive is formatted, cancel the installation. Your SSD should still be intact and you should have a clean hard drive.

Ok so this is what I did. I used diskpart and selected the hdd, cleaned it and converted it to mbr. Cuz I remember formatting both to gpt when I was installing windows. Reason was cuz I didnt know which one was the ssd. And once again thanks for always responding to me always. Cheers man
