Greetings!
I recently bought an old Toshiba Sattelite C870-17U, so i decided to throw a new SSD into it and wanted to install Win 7 with an USB-stick i have.
But when i booted with the USB and went to install it, there was an message saying "setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition"
Iv'e been looking up on the internet for solutions, but all i could find was commands for CMD, some like:
Then one told me to change ACHI to IDE, but that option is not in my bios.
Hope anyone can help me, or if anyone got commands that works, that would be helpful.

Iv'e been looking up on the internet for solutions, but all i could find was commands for CMD, some like:
- select disk=0. Disk 0 is your destination drive, so be careful, all information on this drive will be removed.
- create partition primary size=xxx, where xxx – is the size of new partition
- select partition=1
- active
- format fs=ntfs quick
- assign
- exit
Then one told me to change ACHI to IDE, but that option is not in my bios.
