I replaced a failing os drive, mounted a new wd hdd blue sata.
USB win 10 installer gave error "We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one"
I tried a fix,
"At the custom advanced window, do the following:
Press Shift + F10 on your keyboard
type the following commands
DISKPART list volume
Next you will select the volume where you would like to install Windows 10
Type: select disk #
# represents the number the volume
Type: clean
convert mbr
create partition primary
active
format quick fs=ntfs
exit"
and now usb installer won't load and I get a black screen with "No bootable device found." with "Press F1 to retry boot, Press F2 to reboot into setup Press F5 to run onboard diagnostics"
I went into F2set up and changed boot order to usb at top, restarted and still returned with "No bootable device found.
I can't find a way to get to cmd, where I would try to reformat drive without MBR,
or put drive in another pc, clean it, and start over with a better fix. Any suggestions, please.
