2021-11-12T15:18:03+00:00

I got 2 ssds in my system. Lets call the first one 'a' - it has my original system. The other one is 'b' and i just installed the system on it. The problem is, I can't boot into my disk 'b'. BIOS only shows "windows boot manager" in the boot order, and the menu that appears after restarting while holding shift has no option to change boot. Also the system on disk 'b' couldn't connect to the internet.

    I have used the commands, now there is a different error: "Windows cannot be installed on this drive. The selected disk contains the MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows can only be installed to GPT disks!"

    Thanks for the info.

    In this case we will need to format the disk using the diskpart command.

    The image shows that there are other disks connected to your motherboard, I recommend that for safety you remove them all and leave only this one, follow the procedure below.

    First start the Windows installation and go to the screen to select the installation location, after that perform the procedure below.

    1. Press SHIFT+F10 to open the command prompt;
    2. Type the commands below and at the end of each one press Enter:

    diskpart

    list disk

    select disk 0 (Change the number 0 by the number of the disk where you want to install Windows as listed in the previous command)

    clean

    create partition primary

    exit

    exit

    1. Click Update and you will see that a new partition has been created on the disk;
    2. Select the partition and proceed with Windows installation.

    It displays this error, which in english would be "We were unable to create a new partition or locate an existing one. For more information, see Windows Installer log files" ![](https://learn-attachment.microsoft.com/api/attachments/8d8220c6-2f44-4423-addf-241ca22283b7?platform=QnA

    In this case, it is not showing the second boot option, because the problem is probably with that installation.

    What error did you make? share a screenshot please.

    Just keep disk b connected, let's try to fix this installation.

    It did not recognize any other installations. In addition, I tried to re-install windows on the disk b, but it said there was an error with the partition
