Windows 7 won t install on ssd

broken image

That way I could use the SSD in the 'SATA MB II Caddy' to boot the operating system and use the main hdd for data.īut when i try to install Windows 7, setup does see the SSD in the Caddy, but I can't make partitions on it or format the SSD. To upgrade my notebook (HP nc6220, Mobile Intel 915GM Express Chipset) I bought an Intel x25-m SSD hdd.īecause the laptop only uses IDE (PATA) I ordered a HP-2BAY SATA MultiBay II Caddy to install the SSD.
