My laptop Satellite Toshiba got stuck and coming to the no boot device status. I created one Bootable USB from Microsoft website that helped to install windows 8 on laptop. It worked fine but slow and took longtime (around 15 minutes) to shutdowns or start. Finding Reader card device with no drive then I download driver from Toshiba website to fix it and could read a card. Using Disk management (and Diskpart), I found HDD (Toshiba MQ01ABF050) having 4 partitions: P1 Recovery 300 MB, P2 System 99 MB, P3 Reserved 128 MB, P4 Primary 465 GB. With volume command in Diskpart, it shows the FS (File System) of P4 is NTFS, P2 is FAT32 and P1 (recovery) is RAW (should it be NTFS?). Then I followed the guide "How to do a clean install of Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 " in forum to install again. Going through step 8 (Where Do you want to install Windows?) after deleting the partition P4 (Primary), I reached "Drive 0 Unallocated sapce", cliked New/Apply, OK. But I did not get 4 partitions but " Name/Total size/ Free space/Type = Drive 0 Partition 1/465.8 GB, 0.0 MB/Primary, then "We couldn't find any drives. To get a storage driver. Click Load driver."
Please kindly help to advise to fix it. Thank you
