Vashta Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Hey Guy & Gals, I got a bit of a problem with trying to Install Windows 10 Pro on pc. Replace ssd c: drive with larger hdd drive and went to install windows but can't. Somehow install gives me only 2 options : upgrade or advanced and no install button. I put in another new c: drive and still had same issue. I tried many Microsoft 10 usb created with microsoft creation tool and always the same. I then used Heidoc Microsoft Downloader and tried to install and got same 2 options upgrade or advanced. The drives are new and never used so not sure if Windows installers are seeing old Windows 10 home key in bios. I am trying to install Windows 10 Pro full retail on new drive. I disabled secure boot and cms in bios and still same results. Anyone know how I would fix this? Thanks in advance Vash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowBall Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 You need to click on the second option (advanced) and delete all partitions (erase your disk). You can then install windows 10 by clicking next. Watch this video if you need detailed instructions: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowBall Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 How about you read the original post and stop advertising for that website? If you have a new HDD, how could you possibly upgrade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vashta Posted July 23, 2020 Author Share Posted July 23, 2020 Hello All, After much effort I could not install Windows 10 any version on my pc. I took it to a shop and asked to watch them do it. It seems my pc has BIOS setting that must be changed to install Windows. Then once Windows is installed Bios must be switched back. It even was that way with multiple Hard Drives. Computer would not see any drive without switching BIOS settings one way. And then back the other way. Anyways the shop got it all to work. Now if I remember that for next time it would be good. Thanks for all your help. Vash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People with relevant experience know what the problem is,i had asked my IT colleague for help (installing Windows 10),he had downloaded the Windows ISO, made a Windows bootable disk from it,this disk can be as a Windows installation disk, and next used installation disk to install Windows 10. Just like that. https://www.uubyte.com/make-bootable-usb-from-iso-file.html Using the method provided by Microsoft to install the Windows system is also feasible,but the steps are more complicated. https://www.wikihow.com/Install-Windows-10 Edited November 23, 2020 by GuessLin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
