Windows7 Windows 7 Install command prompt cantcan't access the cC drive

I'm trying to create a new win7 pro vhdWindows 7 Professional VHD which I can dual boot to, following Scott Hanselman's guide to creating a bootable vhd

http://www.hanselman.com/blog/LessVirtualMoreMachineWindows7AndTheMagicOfBootToVHD.aspxguide to creating a bootable VHD.

When I get to the command prompt in the win7 installWindows 7 installation and try to create a vhdVHD or select/attach a pre-created vhdVHD file I get an error saying that diskpartdiskpart can't find the path specified.

If I try and switch to the c drive using cd c:cd c: I see c:
x:\something>

c:\
x:\something\>

I already have a win7Windows 7 Ultimate install and my cC drive is an SSD – if that makes a difference...?
