Hi again!

First: I bought the hard disk and put it correctly and I tested its okay!

Second: I made an USB bootable with another pc I put windows 10 64bit on USB.

 

Now I want to reinstall windows but it doesn't work! : (

I google it and found some options to turn off or on (like legacy or secure) but in BIOS, there is no Legacy Support option and no Secure Boot option so Nothing!

 

Should mention this is my way to reinstall:

Select Boot Device Options and select SanDisk(My USB)

and this black page comes up...

Tnx.

Hi:

 

Unfortunately, I don't know why that is happening.

 

You are doing it the right way.

 

You boot from the USB flash drive and Windows should being to load the installation files after a minute or so.

 

I've never seen a screen like that before.

 

Usually you get some kind of notice of what the problem is.

Hi.

 

 

 

"It's Done! : )".

 

 

 

First time I downloaded ISO file with my phone and with Rufus I made usb bootable (I think the problem came from Partition option in Rufus  GPT or MBR) but I tried again with Windows Creation Tool and it worked without any problem.

 

 

 

I should say I bought ADATA SU800 256GB not WD.

 

 

 

Right now my Pc is working very well that's amazing!

I'm surprised.

 

 

 

I told everyone don't buy a system with CORE i3 and 4 GB RAM(LOL) but now I know, it was all because of the Hard Disk.

 

 

 

I didn't find any answer for this question so I am writing more information for other...

 

"If I get 250GB drive, is it enough or no?"

 

It seems useable capacity of this drive is 237GB (I don't know why)  so capacity of Local Disk(C) is 237GB and

I have installed Office , PhotoShop, AfterEffects and Illustration and 5 more programs but they are not heavy and I don't have any data on drive,

After all 194 GB is free right now.

 

 

 

 

 

Special thanks to you(Paul_Tikkanen) for help.

 

Good luck!

You're very welcome.

 

That is great news.

 

As I had wrote to you the other day, you needed to use a Windows PC and the media creation tool for best results.

 

Storage size on hard drives is calculated differently than what is advertised.

 

See this link for why you only start with 237 GB, and not 250 GB...
