How can I assign a drive letter with the Windows XP recovery console?
I've read older post on this question but didn't help me to fix it so I'm asking it here again. I tried to install XP by removing external HD but didn't worked the same error is occurring.
While trying to install Windows XP I faced a new problem:
When I deleted the partition and made a new one the system assigned the drive letter J: to C: and my bootable disk's drive letter became C:. I now get the following error:
This partition is not compatible to install Windows XP.
I'm able to open the Recovery Console, so is it possible to assign the drive letter through it? I'm in big trouble as I also can't install Windows 7.
EDIT
I had a backup of windows 7 through which I got my system back but the problem is still exist that the setup is showing error continuously with installation of Windows XP.
When I select the C: partition to install XP it gives the error and when trying on J: giving me the same error. While in Windows 7 C: is C: and J: is E:, K: is F:, E: is H:, F: is I:, G: is J:, H: is K:, and the bootable USB is D: at the time of boot while I've assign it X:.
So now how can I fix it to get rid of from this problem.
Answer
So finally I overcome on this problem after restore from Windows 7 backup I was still not able to install the Xp on my system so I booted from Windows 7 USB and deleted all partition on my system drive and then booted from Windows XP USB and created the partition and get back on Windows XP.
