When I try to install to Drive 0 to the fourth partition on that drive, I get the following error - "Windows is unable to install to the selected location. Error: 0x80300024." This happens whether I create the primary partition with Vista, or with the Windows 7 RC install disk. I have tried reducing the size of the partition a bit and still get this error. I was also getting this same error with the Windows 7 Beta. This drive is a 1 terrabyte Western Digital SATA II. I also have 2 other SATA II drives in this system.
