So i decided to change to win 7 from XP, i get to the "Where do you want to install windows?" I can see my Samsung 60gb MLC SSD, but when i click on the drive and click next i get the error.

"Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the setup log files for more information."

I tried deleting the partition (OLD XP) and that gives the same message, i tried formatting aswell, but same message appears and i cannot progress :(

My SSD was aligned manually for XP, could this be causing problems? If so how can i just reset the drive to its factory settings?

I'm pretty screwed now as i deleted my old install and can't get win 7 working.

Any Suggestions?
