I am trying to use Ionic 2 on Windows 7 x64 bit and got stuck when using ionic start command. I have tried to read tutorials and installation instructions but got no luck. Here's the details of my problem:
- Found depreciation warnings during cordova and ionic installation:

Then it shows errors using following command in ionic:
ionic start newProject sidemenu --v2

context of my npm-debug.log:

69296 error Make sure you have the latest version of node.js and npm installed.
69296 error If you do, this is most likely a problem with the node-sass package,
69296 error not with npm itself.
69296 error Tell the author that this fails on your system:
69296 error node scripts/build.js
69296 error You can get information on how to open an issue for this project with:
69296 error npm bugs node-sass
69296 error Or if that isn't available, you can get their info via:
69296 error npm owner ls node-sass
69296 error There is likely additional logging output above.
69297 verbose exit [ 1, true ]
Applied Solutions:
- Installed nodejs 7.3.0 (current version as of now).
Note: I have tried to install x64 bit but since I got errors, so I switched to x86 version and still no luck. I have also tried to downgrade nodejs to 6.9.2 and v4.4.7 but have made no progress at all.
Upgraded npm using "npm install -g npm", clear cache and update registry
Tried to rebuild node-sass
Tried to install minimatch, uuid and fsevents manually
Any idea, what I missed during the installation? I got same problems when creating projects using ionic version 1.
