no, same problem... i'll test on an other machine tomorrow or maybe in a few days and report here

hi ilko_t and thanks for your fast reply! omg...that worked. the usb hdd (WD My Passport Essential, 500 GB) is now listed in diskpart. but a review of the device to be installed didn't worked - still the same error-message. then i just closed the started installation-process, so i came back to the win7-setup startscreen and clicked again the "start installation now" button and the installation runs as normal. now i need an other pc to test this. is it possible that this problem only appears on my old laptop or on newer machine too? maybe an problem with my usb hdd? thanks

hi folks, i have the same problem as mentioned from "Elendil0" earlier in this thread i used the latest beta of WinSetupFromUSB to make an multiboot usb-hdd with 3 primary partitions and an additional 4th partition for some files and stuff (all as NTFS). 1st partition = win XP sp3 x86 (unattended) + win XP sp3 x86 (normal) + win 7 (All In One, selfmade with WAIK from the 2nd link in first post) 2nd partition = win 7 custom selfmade version (patches and stuff, x64) for testing 3rd partition = win 7 custom selfmade version (patches and stuff, x86/x64) for testing all installed in this order. the win xp installations / setup works fine at my test-laptop (an old asus extensa 4100), no problems here. but the win 7 setup hangs at the same point described in the quote above. the win 7 AIO iso burned on a dvd-r works perfect on my test-laptop. in diskpart i just see the intern installed laptop-hdd, no usb hdd any advice to solve this problem? thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english
