Crazylocodude Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 I am trying to do an XP install booting from the CD but when I choose to delete the partition the old windows is on I get an error telling me that " this partition cannot not be deleted because there are files in the temp folder needed for installation " I have never seen this error before on any installation. What am I doing wrong? Or how do I get around this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seshomaru Samma Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 you need to format that partitionthe best way to do it is with gparted live cd (look for gparted tutorilas on google, it's pretty straightforward) any live CD or boot up disc can do it as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
