I am trying to install Windows 8. I have just bought 2 new corsair 120GB Force 3 SSDs.
I set them up in a raid 0 (stripped) configuration. When it came to choosing where to install windows I got the error message - "We couldn't create a new partition or locate and existing one. For more information, see the Setup log files"
I have tried clicking the new button and creating a new partition. I have tried formatting the partition. I have tried clicking the 'load driver' and loading the IRST raid drivers. None of these attempts helped.
Then I deleted the RAID volume and unconfigured the RAID in the BIOS and tried installing Windows 8 on just a single drive. I made all the same attempts without trying to do RAID but I still ran into the exact same error.
Do you know what the solution is? Thanks for your help!
Thanks for the help Moab! However I tried again and all of a sudden I was able to create a partition. I don't know what it could have been though, I really don't know how anything was different the final time. But never mind it is working! – Duncan Gravill – 2012-08-20T23:09:02.290
@FunkyFresh84 glad you got it installed. – Moab – 2012-08-21T01:02:44.860
