I am trying to install Windows Vista on my brand new computer. But, as always, there are some errors. I was really hoping that this time I will have to work with operating system that will not give error on every corner but Anyway the error is Windows is unable to find a system volume which meets its criteria for installation, which I find completely unbelievable because I have two 400GB SATAII drives. I bet you know what I have to do to bypass this error.

This error occurs when you have USB flash disk or USB external hard drive set as a start device in BIOS, or when USB removable device is set to boot with higher priority then internal hard drive. Other option is that you have put un-bootable USB disk in computer prior to powering on computer. To avoid this error disconnect USB disks from computer before you power it up and begin Vista installation. You can add this device later. They claim this is not a bug but an intentional behavior, so do not hope it will change any time soon.
