    Hello Guys!!

    Thanks to everyone for your suggestions and ideas, specially to NavyLCDR. I did what NavyLCDR suggested, deleted the last 2 partitions, extended my D partition and booted from a USB. During the installation I choosed custom and deleted each partition except D, and then installed in the new unallocated space. After that the installation went well and Windows 10 created the partitions. My hard drive now looks better!!

    Hope this help to anyone having the same problem. To Berton, sorry for double-posting, I first posted on Drivers and Hardware and then I realize the other forum called Installation and Upgrade which was better related to my issue and I forgot to delete the first one.

    Thanks to everyone!!
