so, trying to make a LONG story short, i am trying to install windows 10 on a new to me computer. i am using a freshly formatted known good 240gb ssd. but when i try to install windows, it just says it can not be installed, to look in the log files. well, i can not find any log files. and i looked. i (long) formatted it, and initialized it on the computer i am writing this, so its a known good unit. i have tried formatting the ssd in windows install as well, with no luck. after watching several you tube videos, i thought maybe the drive needed to be initialized prior to the install, so i did that and tried again. with the same result. the last time i tried, (10 minutes ago) it said that the program could not find a primary partition, and that was after formatting it. my son is off at college, and he usually finds a way to make it work, but he really cant help me know. HELP! PLEASE!!
