Windows issues again... :(

[wolfeking]

Ok, I am trying to get my HP up and running again. I have tried to reinstall Windows 7 Home premium on it, with failure.
The hard drive had fedora on it to start with, but I need windows for Netflix support.
Hard drive passed manufacturer diagnostics.

Anyway, on install it says

 Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is of the GPT partition style

I ran it through Gparted and formatted it to NTFS and still get the same error....

Killdisk it and start over.

will dban work the same? I have it on my multiboot flashkey already. But i will download killdisk if i need it.

 

[johnb35]

Yep, it should.

 

[wolfeking]

ok, thanks for the help. I will report back if it didn't help.

killdisk works well sometime. Time and place for it. Its a one time pass with a military wipe.

dban worked on it. Did the 3 pass option on it.

 

[johnb35]

So its up and running now?

 

[wolfeking]
