ShadabTheDaddy Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Hi Guys....I am trying to create a personalized Windows XP SP3 for myself.I have done most of the job so i converted it to an ISO using nLitefor some testing in Virtualbox.Now, during the Text Mode setup I encounter this error wheni try to format a drive.(i have attached the screenshot too)---------"Setup was unable to format the partition. The disk may be damaged.Make sure the driver is switched on and properly connected to your computer.You must select a different partition for Windows XP."---------I have tried another Virtual Partitions too but same problem.I also deleted the partition and created it again but it shows thesame error when i try to format it.I thought that it was a problem with Virtual Box so i created a CD of my XP and tried to install it on my Harddisk itself but all in vain.I am sure that my harddisk is not corrupt as one of my older SP2 CD formatted it with ease and it got installed too.All in all i have tried everything that i know of computers but am notable to work it out.So, please help me guys.......ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrAvELAr Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 When you say created a custom CD, it leaves a lot of guessing. How did you create it? Did you remove components? Did you add anything? Are you doing an AIO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
