Situation :I want to install vista or 2008 Server on an old HDD that I intend to flatten during the installation process.
What happened :I got to the point of selecting the disk during the installation and then I was informed that you can't install windows onto a dynamic volume... OK fair enough, I select advanced options in the hope of destroying the partitions and reassigning the drive, no joy, the installation process just tells you that it can't work with dynamic volumes.... FAIL!
Lesson Learned :Make sure if you're using an old disk that was previously set to dynamic that you reassign it from dynamic from within windows before using it for the installation.
