Yep.... If I open Rufus and select FAT32 then select the ISO to create my installer it automatically reverts to NTFS... tells me FAT32 cannot be used with this type of ISO

I know you spent many frustrating minutes with the install, let us forget a bit about clean install, get the usb drive with 10130 technical preview, then do an upgrade from win 8.1, get the ssd in your PC.
1. Open the thumb drive, click startup.exc, go from there.
The reason why I advise you to do an update, just get the win 10 going. I know my Toshiba gave me a lot of headaches with clean install. Again my low end 2008 pc still manage to get it going, I am typing away with this so called 'outdated' pc, yet I am happy with it. Good luck.
Insert your usb stick > right click the drive icon > format > Fat32
Double click the downloaded ISO file (to mount it as a drive in windows 8 / 8.1 )
Copy the contents of the mounted ISO drive to the USB Stick
Forget Rufus...
Win 10 preview has never worked for me either, at least not on a modern Dell core i5 machine. An upgrade install wouldn;t run properly (it took most of the day to install) and a new clean install attempt last week also failed.
At what point in the installation does your fail ?

My Samsung is not UEFI.... it only has UEFI support which is different.... It was built right on the cusp just before all new machines came out with UEFI and secure boot function.... You can't install GPT partition or use one on this laptop
I have exactly the same issue with an old Thinkpad R400, that runs Win8.1 perfectly fine. Have no clue, why neither clean install or upgrade from 8.1 will work (driver issue?).
Booting from USB will load the initial Windows logo but after a few moments, the notebook reboots. With the x86 version I at least could see the rotating circle for a moment, but then reboot. Works similar for the uprade: everything works fine until the system reboots, then I am back in the loop, with from time to time the systems tries to start the auto-repair mode, but reboots before.
