You will have to nuke and pave and clean install. If that does not work its because the drive is physically bad. You will have to use diskpart and CLEAN the drive.
This is why you should always install ubuntu ALONGSIDE windows.
Well, that's exactly what I tried, but the thing that I think that really messed it all up is that windows, and all apps an files where in a single partition, in the only ssd I have.
Thanks for responding, lucky I got the problem fixed at night, and this might be interesting to you, the image stored in the hard drive containing windows, in case you need to reset it, cannot be seen by the Ubuntu installation, so when you try to partition it while installing it, you are doing it over that windows stored image. I hope I explain my self. Even more interesting, windows that was corrupt, could not perform a reset at first, but after a while, I tried again, and it worked! I don't know much and I thank how well designed is the system. Now I have a partition already created, I'm going to try again to install Ubuntu alongside windows, so things should go well this time. Wish me luck!
