This is my first hackintosh build and i was going for a dual boot. I have 2 corsair force 120gb SSDs (one for mac os and the other for windows) but when i try to install windows i get "Windows Setup could not configure windows to run on this computer's hardware" :banghead: I have tried reformatting the drive with no effect. I have been struggling for hours with this and I have no idea how to make it work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Make sure you disconnect the SSD w/ OS X on it for the duration of the Windows install.
And make sure you boot Windows install media in legacy mode, not UEFI (turn off UEFI in BIOS).
