Trouble installing Win 10 64 bit, MBR/BIOS. Partition needs to be GRT
The problem I'm having is that I receive the error message: “Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is not of the GPT partition style”, when trying to install Windows 10 64 bit onto the current Windows 10 32 bit system.
The current state of the drive I want to install to is...
