i performed a Clean install {deleted all partitions & installed on a new partition}
i even used ACER just UPGRADE ASSISTANT.

But still all in vain

THANK U EVERYONE.


i Finally managed to install Win 8 on my Laptop.
i Still dont know what the error was or how the error was created.


i Ran the Setup in wiNdows 7 of windows 8.
Then it asked to keep Everything or nothing, i selected Everything.
& then the process went smoothly.


& finally i have Win 8 running without any error.
i also installed all the drivers of Win8


i Dint require any tool whatsoever to do this.


But i still dont understand few things
After instAlling , when i try to install it once again from BIOS on a new drive it once again gives me the same error.
What is it that is causing this problems, still.
That it can only be fixed by UPGRADING & not by ClEAN install ???


PLS Guyz shed some liGht & help

"Then it asked to keep Everything or nothing, i selected Everything."

Is this option, when installing on a dual boot? All I get for a clean install -( single partition) is an option to keep personal files.)

    Use several different computers during a day, so specs are irrelevant.

it is an OPTION to keep personal Files.
& it installs over ur Windows 7 not on another partition. {so no dualBoot}
