I am trying to install Windows 7 Professional on my laptop that currently just runs Ubuntu 13.10. Originally this laptop came with Windows 8, but I wiped the drive and install Ubuntu 13.04.
Currently I am using WinRAR to open up an .iso file of Windows that I got from dreamspark.org.
I can get to the point where I open up the setup.exe and it says "install windws 7.." but when I do this I get an error stated below this line.
"Windows Setup cannot find a location to store the temporary installation files. To install Windows, make sure that a partition of your boot disk has at least 829 megabytes of free space. " error code: 0x80070490
I have already used Gparted to make a 60gb ntfs partition for Windows 7, and I also have roughly 465gb of unallocated space on my drive for windows to work with later.
What should be my next step to installing Windows 7?
I am also more than happy to post any screen shots I can take during this process if needed.
