Just finished my first pc build today. So on with installing the OS. Went to the bios to make it boot from USB. After that I started the installilation. I got to the part where it starts copying files to ssd but nothing happened (0%) so I let it sit for 20 minutes. I came back and still was at 0% so I turned the computer off and turned it back on. So I did the whole process again but when it shows what drive I wanted on, the ssd said 0.0mb (the ssd is 240 gbs) and that I can't install windows on this drive. I never put anything on this drive as I just got it today, help me!
 
Boot to the install again but this time delete existing partition and redo it. You may have a bad memory stick or sticks if it won't transfer the install files.

How do I delete partitions?

You are give the option on a custom install of windows:

Delete the partitions and create a new one, windows will automatically give you a system reserved partition too.
 
So if you reboot, and go into BIOS, select to boot from that USB you put Windows 10 on, and then reboot..doesn't it prompt you to start install process,?
