Cannot install windows chkdsk /f error ?

In short, the problem may be in BIOS:
Go into BIOS and change the AHCI mode of your HDD to Compatible or IDE.

I've just spent a couple of hours wiping my HD, formatting and reformatting in NTFS/whatever my hard disk with GParted, while all the time, the problem was in BIOS, the mode of the hard drive was set to AHCI , and changing it to 'Compatible' solved it. It seems that Windows (XP in my case) doesn't have/load drivers for this HDD mode.

This will be the millenium's breakthrough plus the end of Moore's Law.
