Got a problem installing windows

[DAnewguy]

So trying to install Windows and get this message I got access to another desktop if needed message reads: We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one. For more information, see the setup log files.

 

Edit* before this it said I needed to have a GPT disc and I converted it to GPT but got no idea what that did or if that even matters

Select Delete and then new. 

 

If that doesn't work, pop the HDD into a separate computer and run an Ubuntu live image to use the formatting tools on that. 

 

Format it to FAT32 and then out the hard drive back into the machine you want to install windows on. 

 

Then select delete and new and have the windows installer format to NTFS and create the system partitions. 

 

Then click next until you're booted into windows.  When it asks for which settings to use turn off basically everything (this youtube video surprisingly explains it quite well...
