[dba-Tech] Windows 10 installation problem

Hi all

I'm having issues with my laptop when I try to upgrade to Windows 10.

I get the dreaded "We can't update the System Reserved partition" 
message, and no helpful advice...

After much Googling, I've been reduced to posting a question on the 
Microsoft help page (I know, the shame!).

I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas what to do...

There's a picture of my Disk Management details on the question 
(http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-windows_install/we-couldnt-update-the-system-reserved-partition/f06c1423-a296-4b85-83f8-8e4281f16c66?tm=1439407158743)

The computer is a HP Pavilion laptop, with a 256gb Corsair M550 SSD in 
it (replaced the 1tb HDD that it came with). Was originally Windows 8, 
but upgraded to 8.1.

If anyone has any useful advice, I'd be more than grateful!

Thanks


Jon
